Hello everyone!

Seeing us in to Spring's longer days and (hopefully!) better weather, I am pleased to announce the PHEA Calendar 2016!bounce

With our Norfolk Winter Run already complete, I have put together an (almost) full list of Events, which I hope will offer something for everyone.

This year, the firm favourite Events have been joined by a couple of new ones.
You'll notice there is the odd "TBC" Event and Date, which will be filled in once everything is confirmed.

FULL DETAILS for each Event will be posted a couple of weeks before that Event is due to occur.

As well as posting information in the East Anglian PistonHeads Forum, I will continuing to send out my Mailing List emails and posting the Events on our Facebook Page, too.
If there is something you like the look of now, then you can of course let me know earlier by posting in this thread or by contacting me via my profile/email.

Facebook Note:
As with last year, if you prefer to sign up to an Event on our Facebook Page, I would please ask you to post a comment on that Event's Page or Message Me to confirm you'd like to attend that Event with us.
Some people like to post across the different platforms, which is absolutely fine.
If you only click the button to say you are "Going" or "Interested", I am sorry to say I cannot include you in my attendees list until you have contacted me or posted on the Event Page.
This makes planning the Events much easier! Thank you.

While this may be the current 2016 Calendar of Events, if you know of anything which may be of interest to PHEA Members, please don't hesitate to contact me smile

28th February RUN Norfolk Winter Run
9th April MEET Rolling Road Day
20th April MEET Social Summer Meet - NEW!
24th April RUN Fish'n'Chip Run
1st May SHOW Duxford Spring Car Show
18th May MEET Social Summer Meet
5th June RUN Hunstanton Run
14th June MEET Social Summer Meet
19th June SHOW Cars on the Green
10th July SHOW Kimbolton Car Show
20th July TRACK Snetterton Track Day
20th July MEET Social Summer Meet
31st July RUN Breakfast Run
7th August SHOW Helmingham Hall Classic and Sports Car Show
17th August MEET Social Summer Meet
28th August SHOW Lavenham Rare Breeds
4th September SHOW Classic & Sports Cars by the Lake
13th September MEET Social Summer Meet
23rd October RUN End of Summer Run
18th December NOSH Christmas Dinner


While all vehicles are welcome to Meets & Runs, I am often asked by PHEA members if their car is "suitable" for a Show.

PistonHeads East Anglia is all about the variety of cars and their owners. Anything fast, rare, expensive, classic or unusual is always welcome.
If you are unsure, I would simply ask yourself if you would be happy to see your car as a paying member of the public smile
If you are still unsure, I can always check with the Show organiser thumbup

Finally, if you have an email address amendment for my PHEA Mailing List, then please get in touch; should that be removal of an old address, informing me of a new one, or if you would like to be added to the Mailing List.

I think that about covers it for now.
I'll update the "TBC" entries as and when I have the confirmation smile

I hope to see you all at one of our Events during the year.

Darren

Afternoon all!

I hereby announce this year's NEW format of mid-week Meets. The NEW Social Summer Meets, or SSM, will take place during a evening track session at Snetterton Circuit in Norfolk - MAP LINK HERE.
The SSM will be held one week day evening per month from April until September.

It will be an excuse to join your fellow PHer for a good catch up, watch the track action and even get on track. Booking for track time will have to be done in advance through MSV's own website. CLICK HERE for their 2016 Car Trackday Calendar.
Our very own Fasteddys is helping organise these Events, and he has worked hard to hopefully set up a group booking for track time at a discounted rate. More details of this become available upon each meet's forum post.

THE DETAILS:
Each Meet will begin around 4:30pm and end at about 8-8:30pm, as the track time ends.
The area in which we will Meet may change from month to month, so when you arrive, just look out for fasteddy's big white truck with red "Fast Eddy" logos on the side.

Entry to spectate at the circuit is FREE, but obviously track time will incur costs.
Track time is also subject to usual track day necessities: long leg & sleeve clothing, helmets, signing on, safety briefing and noise testing. Signing on is from 3:30pm, briefing is at 4:30pm.

You are free to arrive and leave whenever you wish, but please adhere to the site speed limits and watch for pedestrians and other cars' movements.

Tyrells Cafe will be open for business.


The Dates:
Weds 20th April
Thurs 18th May
Tues 14th June
Weds 20th July (Immediately after the PHEA Snetterton Track Day)
Weds 17th August
Tues 13th September


Further Details of this month's specific Track Evening can be found HERE.
As ever, I will post a fresh Event Thread nearer the time.
If you don't wish to wait until my official posting, you can always inform me sooner if you'd like to come along!

So please Join us for these New PHEA Events for 2016 thumbup
From here on in, I will abbreviate Social Summer Meet to "SSM".

We look forward to seeing you.

Darren

Looks like a cracking year this year Darren. I hope to be able to get in for a lot of it, had a shameful absence last year on account of a lack of decent car frown
