There are some smuggling missions you can do between ceos/sothis. I'll go from fuel tanks to all cargo while I'm out there and then swap back depending on my mood before returning. There's nothing too exciting about my build for my AspX. Here it is though. I have a really good grade 3 FSD range boost on it which helps a lot. Got at more or less the max for optimal mass and then also got an optimal mass secondary proc on it. I think I also engineered the thrusters with a level one or two dirty tuning, but I don't recall exactly.

Is it decent to fight with if you throw weapons on it ? I think I just had to much junk on the build I was looking at doing and it was weighing it down.

I went from a Cobra to an Asp and never looked back. If you go with the type 6, depending on the rank of the NPCs, expect to lose a ship every so often -- sometimes the submit fails, crap happens, etc. I'm doing Ceos/Sothis runs now with my Asp and have yet to fail to escape an interdiction. I've got it fitted out for multi-role, but a dedicated Asp trader like AJH's is both cheaper and more efficient at those runs.
