Default Light water valley show

Forgive me as i am still pretty new here.

I have just heard of this show and would like to attend.
I have added my details to the massive list,but do i have
to be part of a local group ? as am not yet.Do you pay on
the gate or do i need a ticket.

Any help would be appreciated.
Sorry about the Vallet ( Valley )

Thanks for the positive comments guys
List closes strictly on the 19 th after that you don't get in as the numbers are calculated for insurance
The only exception is Micky wrx who has special benefits : D

We are going to cap it at 300 this year as we have a brand new display
Coming which will leave you to think about many things

13 clubs
300 cars expected for year ten of our ten year plan
It's scary to look at photos from ten years ago and what we have achieved
In the Subaru community
Check out the NBO Facebook and website
Tomorrow we will be releasing the timings and competions and other things that are
Happening and Of course a few surprises too
And all for our great new charity
The firemans charity which the NBO committee selected this year

In case any clubs want to meet up for the convoy on the way up we will stop at WETHERBY SERVICES on the A1M NORTH BOUND APPROX JUNC 46 at 8.00am and leave for 8.15am this will also allow a quick toilet break for the little one's and Big one's!!!

We should then get to light water valley (NBO) at approx 9.00am

John has said about capping this event on numbers that never really happens as people drop out at the last minute and sometimes people decide to turn up TBH we will never turn people away as it is a charity event and everything goes to a good cause in the 10 years that I have been involved in helping to organise this event we have never had a problem other than Mickywrx trying to eat all the burgers as this is the 10th NBO we have something special lined up so turn up put your money in the bucket and enjoy.

NBO 10 SHOW AND SHINE COMP #######

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well as it was so popular over the last few years and with the new arena and with over 140 scoobies taking part last year we are repeating the

NBO 10 show and shine car of the day comp

this year we will have an even BIGGER arena to give more space for the cars and the crowds that watch this .
As the NBO concept has grown every year we feel this is the finale for the final year of the current NBO ten year vision .

this is a major part of fundraising so everyone pays a quid or TWO as they drive into the arena for the charity buckets We made over £400 for charity last year .
This year we will have the fireman with the buckets collecting at the arena gates
This is becoming an important part of our fundraising
To drive your car into the NBO Arena for a quid or TWO is a bargain to park up with the best Subarus in the uk

Don't be frightened to enter
Its a bit of fun and half the cars drive into the arena that attend the show

we try to keep it simple and quick and this year Chris < the legend > Towers and the judges have made a few changes to things ,speed the process up for the 180 cars expected in the arena for the various classes and we have made an even BIGGER arena

Judges
Well to sort out the best cars of the day we have assembled some great judges !!!

Chief Judge
Chris < the legend > Towers
After our cabinet reshuffle and after nine years Chris fancied a change to celebrate NBO 10 and what better way then to use his management and engineering skills in the Arena managing the classes to be judged


Andy Rae from Scotland
Andys second year in the judges coat but with 20 years experience in show and shine on the RS concourse scene and now Subaru nothing gets past him .
Andy has taken his skills to a new level this year with producing new sheets and specifications
Some say he will get his White gloves out and want to check the nuts and bolts are the correct angle and the things are taken apart ,cleaned and put back together again he will not miss anything a true perfectionist .
I once told Andy I'd washed and cleaned the Greenwagon which took 8 hours and Andy laughed at me and said that's just a basic wash from where I come from

We also have another two top judges that will be announced very shortly

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These judges have fantastic qualification and experience built up over many years and no one can ever question their abilities
Yes we will always get the moaners and grumbles and it would be easy to give 180 trophies away to keep everyone happy but these guys have the awesome job of sorting out the best cars in the show ,they know their stuff and their decision is always final !!


Please read carefully for the changes we have made as there is quite a few from last year #
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1230pm
1. Best non Subaru car

A great class to get us underway for the day
Non Subaru only ,anything goes and will in this class to draw the crowds to the arena
Might even be some of the Porsche and EVO ,choppers ,custom car ,wagons or even a remote control car
---------
1pm
Best new hatch section 2008 +
This is the third year that the hatches are in the arena last year we had 14 in the arena ,hopefully we might have a few more this year and a couple of the new saloons too
With hatches & Salloons the future (until the BRZ ) of Subaru we must look to the future with these cars
Get your hatch in the arena ,modified or just clean ,the judges don't mind and the crowds are always drawn to this class as they discuss upgrading to having a new age
Yes they are a rare sight on the roads and this is the biggest Subaru show in the Uk to see all the hatches assembled in one display

-----------------------------------------

130pm
Yes another major change at the NBO 10 ##
Judges Rest period and discussion of what lies ahead

Also this year we are going to draw the raffle as we feel as a committee thata few people have left the show early so we want to go for the captive audience when the show field is packed out
We also have some top donated goods to raffle so we want to maximise on people still at the show
It also will gave our admin staff time to count the many thousands raised in time for the cheque presentation at 3pm

------------------------------

2pm
Best Classic and legacy ,Forrester and any other Subaru ,justy ,pickup or Sv .
With the early classics approaching 19 years old and the youngest 12 years old this class is how good and long lasting they are .Andy will be looking for clean and polished and overall condition and the other judges are looking at modifications and how well they are done
YES that's right all Classsics in the arena ,standard ,modified we want to see them all together in the ring ( mirrors under them ) we will be expecting 50-60 classics in the Arena to fight for the gold
-------------------------------

230pm
Best new Age
This is always the biggest class in the arena so we leave it to the end
Bug eyes ,blob eyes or Hawk eyes we want to see them all in the Arena
We are expecting again 50-60 in the arena modified to the extreme ,some just tastefully modified and some just nice and shiney hoping to catch the judges attention



----------------------------------------------------------------------- #
You will notice we have made quite a few changes to the car of the day competition this year loosing the best hifi and modified classic ,shiney new age ,modified new age and same for the classics .lots of thought has gone into simplifying the classes of non subaru, new hatch .best classic and then best new age to gave the judges less classes although the same number of cars and to avoid confusion on number of modifications and is mine shiney or modified .
Its simple and easy to understand and will be fantastic as always #
-----------------------------------
3pm

The final line up of the winners

4 runners up and 4 winners from each section compete for the

Car of the day ##

You will see 8 of the finest cars in the UK parked up together ##

---------------------------------------------------------
Awards ceremony starts

310 pm
Lordys special awards
315pm
prizegiving for all the cars
325pm
club of the day comp trophies
330pm

charity cheque will be presented to the firemans charity for this year
Also a group photo of the NBO ten year cheque total of what we have raised over the last ten years
Will be break the magic 50k ??
We are also looking for those of you who have attended every NBO or prehaps nine of them for a group photograph this should be an exclusive group of maybe a dozen or so for a NBO celebration of our last great ten years .

that is the plan hopefully we will try to keep to these times but that is the running order for the day
