Welcome Leon.
That's the best TM introduction I've ever read....!!!😁
Consider 'better' tyres rather than wider.
I remember seeing the tower ballroom fill up with water when I was a kid.....and Charlie Caroli....!!!.....and who was the bloke with the budgies....???😆
All the big names used to 'do' Blackpool back in the day, the piers, tower ballroom or winter gardens always had the best 'turns' on....!!!

Thank you Julian.
Re. tires (my excuse might get old soon)... one advantage of having a brain bonk and loosing memory is, I can always pull it out as an excuse - one disadvantage is, forgetting everything - one nice thing is, remembering stuff. I have remembered quite a bit since writing my first post, e.g.: I WAS concerned about tires melting under 'race track' driving conditions ( and I know Turnip is not a race car and he is not to be built as one ). I had forgotten how shocked my father was with the cost of the Cinturto CA67s and I had forgotten that the tires were used as 'control tires' (and why).... I am proud of myself for knowing all of this before 'my bonking' and my father trusting me enough to buy the tires (he will have hated that payment).
I have reminded myself and I should be concerned about the Pirellis 'NoT holding up' to my 'its not a race car that i am driving on track' style of piloting.
Re. Blackpool and its attractions... I could be wrong but I think 'newbrighton tower' was constructed (along with its peer) to rival Blackpool. If anyone knows NewBrighton now... they will likley agree that it wasn't a successful campaign (hehehe).
To keep the thread from getting too far 'off topic', can anyone think of another rival what was unsuccessful???
