We're using a single speed gearbox (CIMple box, to be exact), along with 4 inch wheels, so a speed like that will be hard to achieve, since it's our first time using 4 inch wheels and pseudo-creating part of our drive train.

Thanks for the input, though! We want to try a 2 speed transmission either next year or the year after, so we'll take your speeds into consideration!
