Default What Lipo to run in my RC8Be? 2S, 3S, 4S

Just doing some reading and it looks like most guys are running a 4S but I've seen some 3S cars as well with the same setup I have.

I am planning to run a Castle Mamba Monster with a 2200 kv motor.

I do already have 2 other 7.4V packs so I know I can wire them up to run as a 4S but was thinking it might be fine to run on 3S. But what about running it on just 2S, would that be too slow or would it even work? Sorry if that's a dumb question but I really don't know.

Also, was wondering if you guys can recommend a good servo for under $100. I was looking at the Savox high torque metal gear one as I have Savox in my other cars and they seem to be very good.

Use 4S. 2S will be WAY too slow and 3S won't be fast enough either.
