The car comes with them as stock. But yes they do exactly that.

What motor is everyone running? Would a 2250 be okay?

We did a 20 min main recently and it was my idea joking to do a battery change. Well the battery change became part of the main. Hahaha. Kinda funny watching a bunch of nitro guys rip a battery out and swap it. But overall the battery change in a 20 min main is a fun way to go.

2250kv from hobbywing is fine. Just turn the punch down to 2 or one and use a 6000mah battery lipo.
If u need to go lower then leopard does 1800kv which is marvellous for the price

OCRC did a 1hr. spec Slash back when they were the only SC and plus your own team mates did the marshaling for your car only, shoulda seen the first corner. Hilarious

I did a 20 minutes race in 2200kv 4S with a 5000 mah hyperion G3 lipo and finished 3rd so you can do it, it depends on the track/ setup/ driver.

In 4S I would definitely go for a 1900 though
