Default this a good electric drift?

Total newb here, currently got a hpi wr8 flux 1/8, its a good car, just dissapointed since its a akward size no wheels/bodys fit, so i decided to get a 1/10 hpi sprint 2 drift from here: http://www.rc-tradingpost.com/7427-h...riftsport.html

So i got a few questions
1) is it a good car? My wr8flux was good, but it lasts about 30 minutes before something breaks
2) i noticed its a low maintenance brushed, how much do these break? My current one hasnt broke once with over 50 hours of use
3) can i replace the motor with a brushless?
4) what battery would you recommend for speed? I like speed
5) http://www.rc-tradingpost.com/hpi3319.html there is 3 types of this wheel, 3mm offset, 6mm and 9mm, what does this mean?
6) finally, if i put touring car tires on it how well would it handle? And what speeds could it possibly get to


Again sorry for the questions, i understand if no one helps , but im a total newb right now
