Shame to have read that.
There was some "exuberant" departures last month, but none of us I happy to say.

Darren

Not sure how that would bother anyone anyway? No houses around and the vast majority head for the A11.

As a residents pass holder, it wasn't me that complained honest

[fast eddys]

Yes, unfortunately there were a few idiots leaving irresponsibly last month and I mentioned this to MSV. I asked for them to lay on staff to 'police' later on after the track time finishes which is the time excess noise is meant to stop at the circuit. Brands Hatch Summer Evenings have been stopped by the local Council. It would be a shame for the same to happen here.
None of us caused a problem last month, but as we are usually some of the last to leave, please keep the noise/speed down, but make sure you enjoy yourselves while you are there.
See you all on Wednesday

That would be a good move

I'm sorry I wasn't a bit braver to self police - If we get a stereo sound off competition I'll defiunately say something

Trouble is people light the blue touch paper when leaving so it's hard to "police"

It only takes a few people to stop the event - once it's lost it's hard to get it back

Here here

Perhaps a way of policing it would be give snetterton reg numbers of "offending cars" One man on the gate and a list of "black flag" regs - if your reg is on it - you don't get in???

These events are really good and easily ruined.

Ah yes! Kevin did mention you'll be along. We'll be over by the Archie Scott Brown centre, so please do drop by in between your laps

I'm not hugely familiar with Snett, which bit is the ASB centre? Just so I know where to go in the evening :P

We are normally fairly close to Tyrells Cafe/Resturant/Bar

Follow the road in over the bridge and then you see the paddock area - sort of follow your nose

[Gewy]

I'm hoping to be back for this tomorrow; but may be running late
Cheers

ASB is scrutineering on the map above. I assume they'll be there for the day and move to the usual area for the evening?

I'll be over around 3:30pm tomorrow. Hope the weathers decent!

[iluvmercs]

We will using the ASB Centre during the day and remaining over that way for this month's evening Meet - it saves moving cars, van and equipment.

It is named as the "Scrutineering Bay" on that map, towards the end of the pit lane

Darren

[fast eddys]

only just got back from Snetterton. Yes, head right up the top to the Scutineering bays

Good job someone pointed that out!!

[ziontrain]

Thanks all, will head in that direction when I arrive, hopefully around 6ish.

Apologies in advance for the car not being as clean as hoped- I washed it yesterday evening but it has since rained and travelled 100 or so miles. I'll try and get there early and get some snaps of those on track though- will put any decent ones up on here.

I think I'm in love:

Dave Genesis28 is quite pleased with it too - Although Mrs Genesis28 is a bit peeved I found it for him

Is that chap based on diss? I've seen that car around a lot!

Thank you to everyone who turned for another successful SSW Meet and an extremely enjoyable social evening.

We again appeared to have approximately 30 cars on the PH Stand (even including a couple of bikes, after last month's personal mistake ). Some of the Track Day attendees stayed on and a couple of members popped out on track for the evening session.
The bright green Cayman looked lovely.
The Black Series sounded awesome.
The Cupra R doesn't seemed phased by an evening of abuse immediately after a whole day of it!

The weather remained dry, albeit cloudy, but that didn't put off people across the show with a huge array of vehicles on display from every corner of the car culture.

Thank you to everyone who turned out to support the PHEA Stand, with a good mixture of new PHers and regulars.
Welcome to the newbies If you'd like to be added to my PHEA Mailing List, please get in touch

I apologise that I missed a few of you this month. I will aim to rectify that next time!

As usual I was snapping away - CLICK HERE for my photos

Next up is Helmingham Hall on Sunday 2nd August, details for which will be posted in the coming days.

Hopefully see you all again soon!

Darren
