The fastest motors would probably be the Lehner ones. But speed is somewhat equal to the number of watts that the batteries can dish out. 12 cells can only output 1200 watts PEAK. This may/may not be enough. But I would bet that it isn't. The more powerful Lehner motors are rated for extreme wattages, and will require a lot from the cells. So, "Speed costs money. How fast do you want to go?" Of course if you want to be sponsored, then good luck. I doubt you could get a motor/setup this expensive for free.
