Hello everyone,

After the announcement of PHEA Restarting, I am delighted to give details this year's PHEA Track Event, and the return of our normal format bounce

It gives me great pleasure to tell you our very own fasteddys has been able to organise a return to our usual Track Event for this year: We are able to get a 10% discount & use of the Archie Scott Brown centre once again thumbup
The Track Event will be happening on the MSV Trackday at Snetterton on Monday 19th July.
MSV information for the Trackday can be FOUND HERE but please DO NOT BOOK here, or call.

Fasteddys has kindly arranged a group booking for 10-15 of us, however payment will be different to past Track Events.
As per MSV's new system for group bookings, we have been requested to get monies in advance from individuals the group and then pay the whole sum in one go to MSV nearer the Trackday date.
Because of this, we ask that as soon as you have decided to join us, please message me so I can give you the banking details for a prompt payment. Unfortunately if payment is not received in good time you cannot be included in the group booking, so please pay as soon as possible. Thank you.
The MSV track day is priced at £209, however with the fasteddys discount, that brings it down to £188.10

The Archie Scott Brown Centre has garaging for 8 cars, additional parking area, space for your fuel and tools, plus its own kitchen, toilet and lounge facilities. This all makes for a great exclusive day for us PHers.
If Covid-compliant, we shall again be offering some light self-service refreshments, too.

I am sure we are eager to again get out to drive our cars on track in the company of our fellow PHers; it will be great to see you all! drivingthumbup

COVID-19 Note
While the UK government restrictions will have hopefully ended by this Event, some recommendations may still be in place.
Mindful of this, if you would prefer to maintain a non-contact greeting please simply say so on the day so we can respect each others' wishes and keep everyone feeling safe and comfortable.
Please be aware of any remaining mask-wearing and social distancing recommendations. Again for people's comfort and well-being, please adhere to these. Our use of the Archie Scott Brown Centre will also reflect any recommendations.
Thank you smile

Hopefully by the date of the Track Event, spectators will be allowed. While subject to change, we look forward to welcoming some of you if permitted smile

Once again, if you would like to come along, please message me as soon as possible for the payment details.
After your payment of £188.10 is received, your place will be secured.

On the day itself, we shall meet at Snetterton. The Archie Scott Brown Centre is located at the far end of the pit lane. Please look out for vehicles with "fasteddy" stickers and my blue Audi RS4 with "GEE" on the registration smile

Hopefully see you soon!

Darren

Trackday Attendees Please Read

I have a couple of updates for all those who have paid via the Fasteddys group. I know of couple of us paid before a group booking was confirmed as possible. If this includes you, please ignore the following.

Snetterton will not have a full onsite booking capacity, so if you intend to add drivers or passengers please pay via the group booking to Fasteddy before the end of June.

As MSV require the group's payment in full by the end of June, I am sorry to say we cannot issue refunds after this time. After this deadline you will still be able to sell your space within the group should you no longer be able to come along. However any booking change must be by prior approval as Fasteddy's name is attached to the event. Thank you smile

See you all on the day driving

Darren

With Eddy and myself having a little trouble emailing some of the group, I am posting the message sent to us from MSV regarding Monday's trackday smile

MSV Email said:

The safety briefing will be available using this same link 24hrs prior to the event. Please forward this email onto any other participants you have booked. They will all need to click using the same link and complete the appropriate registration form using their own email address.

On arrival, you will need to show your licence and collect an attendee wristband. The registration team will need to check both the online registration and briefing has been completed. (no briefing for passengers) They are unable to issue your attendee wristband for the day until you have done so.

LATEST UPDATE ON COVID-19 MEASURES FROM 19 JULY

The Prime Minister has announced that Step 4 on the roadmap will proceed on Monday 19 July, and that all legal restrictions on social distancing will be lifted.

This news is warmly welcomed by everyone at MSVT. We are pleased to confirm that, from this date onwards, the current restrictions on the use of garages and the number of people that can attend will be dropped. Spectators will also be permitted, whilst being discouraged from entering any working areas of the venue.

We will continue to retain our online check-ins and briefings, as they have proved more convenient for participants. These will be supplemented by short on-the-day briefings.

Helmet hire will be reintroduced from 19 July (all helmets will be disinfected between use).

Face coverings are no longer mandatory in enclosed indoor spaces; however we recommend their use in busy areas. Masks will still be required for in-car instruction and ARDS tests if using an open face helmet.

Enhanced cleaning measures will be maintained, and hand sanitisers will be widely available. Circuit restaurants will be operating as normal.

What happens if I have COVID-19, or I’m required to self-isolate?

Any individuals who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, have tested positive for COVID-19 or are self-isolating should notify us as soon as possible to discuss re-booking.

What an absolutely pleasure it was to spend time on track with car people again!
A whole bunch of regulars and a couple of newbies made for a wonderful group. Thank you for joining in smile
It was great fun playing out on the circuit with many of you, too driving
The Audi seemed to like the day biggrin

Thank you fasteddy for organising the food, discount and ASB once more - it was great to be back in there.
Such an enjoyable day, if quite hot (the car told me it was over 30 Celsius in the afternoon).

I hope the 2 Clios are easy fixes!
Thank you to those who didn't mind me popping out for some passenger laps.

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

See you all again soon!

Darren
