Default Is 65T motor too slow for Clodbuster Crawler

I have been looking for a cheap set of motors and ran across some Matrix (intergy)65T motors for about $13 per motor. Is 65T going to be too slow for almost anything (what kind of top speed would they have) or should they be ok for crawling? If you have any other suggestions let me know.

Thanks!

you should to be able to gear the truck for more speed if the motor is too slow, it should have plenty of torque for that
