First off the only way to tell amp draw is with a meter and your assumption over pinion size are just a guess
No matter which one you go with rember don't over gear get as small a pinion as you can and start there and work your way up
The reason it has a problem with 40 lb cars is most likely it's over geared
For me 8 cells would be max just because there hard to charge and if one cell goes bad the pack is gone
And 12 cells would be worse
Most people who build the car you are talking about just want a car to go fast for 5 minutes or so
So if you want to tare the tires off the rims 8 cell should do it 12 will do it easier so its down to money [emoji93][emoji95][emoji91][emoji90]
