Default Micro electrics + help

Hello the micro scene!

I'm awaiting delivery of a Lrp shark, as southport radio car club are going to be running them indoors this winter I'm interested to give it a go!

The car Seems to have quite a few upgrades, aluminium towers, shocks, front top plate, carbon fibre servo strap and I think it's a carbon battery strap. I'm going to assume it has ball doffs as the seller races mainly micro but I'll double check when it's here.
Along with the clubs series I may look to do two of the more northern nationals if I can, or at least attend ellesmere/Chester.
I'd like to get the going going well, but not have to pay stupidly high prices.
The club has made it clear we need to run hard case lipos and there's no flex in that, what batteries can I get, and how many will I need to get me through meetings?

Do people run brushless combos on the micro scene? If so what should I be after? And what rated motor should I aim for that will have enough speed and controllability?
Going to need a servo to get it around a corner, again advice on this is helpful!

Last of all - wheels and tyres! What am I going to need here? Is the wear rate good/bad with micros?

I know there's alot of questions, but best to get the right advice before I buy blindly!
