Depends what is the turn limit on your speed control? Personally, none of those motors on the list I would use in the first place. However if I had to pick one out of those the fastest one would probably be the Venom. So as long as your ESC can handle it than that one with proper gearing should get you the most on road speed. But I would highly suggest that you use Dean's Plugs instead of Tamiya's. The dean's plugs are way more efficient in tranferring energy and have less resistance than Tamiya style plugs.

What Price range are you looking in? So I can find you a better motor than those.

I just got a Reedy Quad Mag 19 turn of Ebay for $23 shipped. It was new in the box from a private seller, not a store. I would do some searching on Ebay if I was you.
