Hmm hard to tell. I am probably close now to 4000 watts with my MMT and am no where near 100mph. Of course drag is alot more though since the truck is much higher off the ground.

I'm using BrianG's speed calculator and the minimun speed I'm coming up with is 60+ mph. The only way to find out is to actually do one

Yep, just like cheerleaders!

The 1/5 scale cars look great. Is there a good place to find rollers? Or just search the various forums. I remember a 1/5 scale specific forum, can't remember the name now...

I'm trying to get the place (s) that makes them to send me one so I can convert it, but sometimes it's just frustating dealing with some companies in Asia. There are a few in ebay that are somewhat cheap.
