I would need to see the BSFC chart for the motor to determine whether or not it could happen. CdA, Rolling resistance, and weight do not care what size motor you have, rather whether or not it can produce the power it needs to get moving or stay moving.
I'd say with good aero and efficient driving (accelerating at peak BSFC, limiting your stops, etc), it should be possible.
