The power comes from the batteries.The more power you can fit in your chassis (in terms of batteries) the faster you can go.It's very easy to select a motor that can extract the maximum power available from your batteries.I was going to suggest a 1930 at around 45K to 50K rpm for whatever voltage you're running,maybe even a 1940 if the load (gearing and drag) will be high enough,but again that depends how much voltage you can fit under the hood.

There are Lipos capable of high discharge too,the bottom line is you can fit more power in the same space with Lipos.
