Default Stock motor sucks. Looking for suggestions to upgrading my motor. Thanks!

Here is what I got:

All stock RC10T4.1 brushed RTR with a Reedy 17 turn motor that sucks majorly.

I am looking into getting a Velineon 3500 kv Brushless Motor 10-turn. It is $159.99 at Tower Hobbies and it also comes with a Velineon VXL-3s ESC. I will be running 2s lipos.

Just wondering if that is a good deal for an upgrade. Not trying to get top of the line stuff. The RC10T4.1 is for my daughter. Also if anyone has a better suggestion for a motor I'd greatly appreciate it.

Yesterday my Gf, daughter and I went out to go bashing at a bmx track. My gf and daughter each drive a RC10T4.1 and I drive an RC8be. Once we arrived my daughter got upset with me that I didnt charge her battery cause her car was really slow. Making a short story shorter, it wasnt her battery it was her motor. We Literally had to kick the tail end to get the car moving.
