Good afternoon everyone,

I am delighted to announce the PHEA Track Event is a GO! (albeit pared-down compared to usual) party

Unfortunately our original 15th July date is already fully booked, so it has been moved to Wednesday 22nd July.
As we don't know how many spaces are left on the 22nd, I would recommend booking as soon as possible to avoid disappointment!

Please book via the MSV Trackday Page: CLICK HERE

For this year, I am sorry to say we are unable to offer a group discount, or share our usual Archie Scott Brown centre. We sadly won't be able to offer our usual refreshments to share, either.

However, it will be the first PHEA Event that can go ahead since all this kicked off, and I am sure we are eager to again get out to drive our cars in the company of our fellow PHers drivingthumbup

Important COVID-19 Information - Please read:
In line with social distancing guidelines, MSV have stipulated that no extra people or spectators are allowed to attend their track days, with only one passenger per car from the same household as the driver.
Helmet hire and tuition will not be available.
Briefing and sign on will be online, too. (Wristbands collecting from the office, but with a 2 metre distanced queuing system.)

MSV have a PDF page with all their COVID-19 information, which I urge you to read in full. A link for this FULL INFORMATION can be FOUND HERE: http://www.msv.com/media/7313957/How%20we%20are%20...

I know this isn't our usual Track Event but it is a great opportunity for us to socially distance meet and enjoy a decent track day within these eased restriction guidelines.

Once again, if you would like to come along, please book as soon as possible.
When you've done this, please add your name to the list on here. Thank you.

On the days itself, please look out for vehicles with "fast eddy" stickers and my blue Audi RS4 with "GEE" on the registration smile

Hopefully see you soon!

Darren

Good evening all,

Just a quick update to say that the MSV Trackday is FULL, a Reserve List now running.

Also a member had some issues when booking resulting in an extra space being purchased.
So, as it is we have one extra place which can be transferred to you.
If you'd like this spot, please get in touch as soon as possible smile

Also, Snetterton have promised fasteddys a couple of garages for us all, so fuel and parts storage won't be a problem thumbup

See you on the 22nd driving

To let you all know, the garages have restrictions of one car and two people at the moment and 25l of fuel ok
If the weather is wet, open top cars without roofs will have priority of course or cars requiring tinkering
Cheers
Eddy

Hi all,

Just to let you know that I had a meeting with Snetterton circuit manager at the weekend and all is still good for our couple of garages. We hope to be in 1&2 unless anyone more important than us turns up lol

Thanks for the update and sorting the garages for us, Eddy smile

Don't forget to sign on and view your online briefing before tomorrow, as detailed in the email you should have received from MSV. I've just has mine, and it's very easy.

I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow driving

I don't think you have jinxed us after all: It's slightly cloudier now, but it should be dry and warm (but not too hot!) thumbup

I look forward to seeing you all in the morning smile

Awesome day! Great to meet you guys, and some great fun on track.

I recorded all my sessions so will go through the footage this week and get the good bits uploaded to YouTube. Will post the link here once they are online.

Can't wait for the next one!

This is pretty much the only photo I took from the day - did anyone else get any good snaps?

What a wonderful day that was!
Thank you to those who came out to play, and of course to fasteddy for organising it, and our garages thumbup

I thoroughly enjoyed getting out on track again in the company of regular PHers, and indeed a couple of new faces: Welcome to the fold! :wave:

The Audi seemed to love her laps in this year's cooler weather, happily slurping through some fuel; she's still fun after all these years! Great to have passed another milestone with her (107k!) during the day, too nerd

Sorry it wasn't our usual Track Event, but hopefully next year we can resume this and have a few more people, and spectators, join us.

Once uploaded, I'll post a link to my snaps from the day.

Hope to see you all again soon!

Darren
