I run the same battery size and motor in my truggy (XT8 geared for 38mph weighs just about exactly 10lbs fully loaded with a battery for the main) and get about the same run time. I can actually hit the LVC in under 15min if the traction is high and can really lay down power. I actually went to a 5s 5800 pack for the mains just to be on the safe side.
