Have a look at Henry Velasco hulls fast easy build and NO FEATHERS. A Phil Thomas T-5 is also a good bet 60 plus mph one in for sale section right now
 
our club guy( Kevin) Great faster run "winston Eagle ( Lobster) no one beat him because I sold my CMDI Stainless steel X460/3 cup 3.4" to him so He is very happy with scale & prop

I would have to go with an 8255 hull. Can be built with or without a wing and can be extremely fast if set up right

Allan, Is that one of my Winstons? x460/3 is big prop for scale, but I havenot run a Winston with one of the newer CMB motors.. I got mine up to 68mph one day messing around with a 1662 prop.

The Winston lobster setup well will be fast and it races well too. Still holds IMPBA 1/4 mile two lap record.

The 82U55 type hulls are good fast and do run fast lap times. They have no wings to mess with or dummy motors.
