I think the only way you are going to reach 60mph is with a brushless conversion. MMM 2200 on 6s lipo could get you there... BUT I'd go with something lower kv and more voltage. 60 for a MT is similar to 110 for a touring car. It's possibe, but it takes a whole lot to get there.
Look at this....

check this out-

8ight 80+ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKctW...eature=related - not a MT but demonstates BL power
MT going 59 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xi46j...eature=related - This truck could go faster with some bigger tires and other small high-speed tweaks like lowering it.

If I kept looking I'm sure I could come up with more.
