Default losi micro crawler motor upgrades?

Are there any micro motors that could be used as an upgrade to the stock motor used in the losi micro crawler?

Just using the 7.4v lipo (if you haven't already) will make a big difference.

I have a couple sets of the losi micro crawler axles and radio gear that are going to be scalers and figured I would try to get a bit more speed out of them then a stock motor.I see a few of the micro builds using the plastic frames from the models they are using,but figure they wont hold up too long on a trail ride.

dont think them stock worm gears will handle much more.i put the largest pinion in that comes in the box for more speed,with a 7.4 lipo...and those axles get pretty hot.
