What body would be nice for indoor asphalt?
Thanks for being so nice in answering questions from a newbie.
Before spending on motors, tires (and traction compound) you really should check out the track you intend to race at.
regarding motors, there will only be certain motor classes running there (17.5 and mod or 17.5 and 13.5 or whatever).
regarding tire selection, see what they are running in the class you intend to participate in. most people will suggest pinks for asphalt, but my local asphalt track was better with greens or black/yellow (carpet tires). Also, many carpet tracks do well with pinks but black/orange works best at my local carpet track, pinks won't go 8minutes, by 4minutes they are going away. my point is that what is best depends on the local conditions at your track.
