13 EVOs (Kostas Invasion) 47 cars SUPER PLOT ## EVO PEN ##

Well this is the one that will cause debate ,controvesy ,jealousy and every thing else 7 EVOS apeared at NBO1 they have regrouped and expanded and are fetching a massive 48 EVOS led by Kosta who is the chief organiser this guy plagued my life out untill finally at a NBO committee meeting we agreed to let them show ,Its took them 6 years of planning and no doubt Increased carbon footprints and mass destruction but this is one group the NBO committee are excited to see .............We wellcome the EVOs back to the NBO7


-------------------------------
There is NO COST for having a club stand although EVERY car entering the NBO field pays the £7 min donation to the charity buckets -No Exceptions

So the size of your STD stands are 70 foot wide 40 foot deep and the height of low flying aircraft !! this has been measured out to give a ample space for up to 18 cars and a tent


The Five SUPER plots CS, LADS ,DSC ,and Zero260 have a 70 by 70 plot

enough for 25 cars aprox and the EVOS will have the EVO pen


the other smaller groups will have 60 or 50 foot wide depending on cars booked

The spaces will be allready marked out for you when you arrive thanks to Gussy <the ringmaster> and the Captain and Denise and the rest of the marshalls from CS ,thanks in advance to them for going on the Saturday to help mark out the field with me.


The sizes have been perfected from last year and std plots will fit 18 cars in BUT

the judges felt less is best and you have to ask yourself the question !!
Do you want your club stand to be cluttered?
Too many cars the same ?
letting every car on just to please the members ?#
your Club tent squashed in the corner?
Or do you want it to be a little bit different ?

looking at previous years judgeing sheets the highest scores were with the club stands that had fewer cars on ,postioned wisely and leaving more space for other attractions as a perfect example of the LADS from 2 years ago who left more then enough space for their History section and scaletrix ""
the winner had the most of everything in the sections

This year we have added a few new ones to test you all ""





The Club stand judges are

Lord harding (CS/TTS )NBO Chairman
With over 25 years management experience running shops always looking at perfection ,design ,layout,salesmanship and passion .some say he is mad but his commitemnt to getting Subarus together in a field will go on for ever

Martin (TTS Chairman )
Helped set up the NBO 7 years ago has helped with his madness ,and desire to get more improvements to the NBO concept he is a tough judge and helps with the <visions>

Gussy (CS chairman )
Gussy was in at the NBO right from the start his planning of the field and logistics is fantastic and has helped get the NBO to where it is today "

Mark (classic wr1 show car )
an experienced custom car man ,winner of many awards on the cruise theme owns one of the most photographed Subarus in the UK and has taken a great interest in show design for us in the future .

Mrs Drumpsterphil (RB5OC)

Caroline is without a doubt the ultimate'' Subaru lady'' her knowledge and pasion beats many men and her desire to get the job done. Im really excited that Caroline famous for her award winning RB5 has decided to help us judge with more and more ladys and family getting involved in the subaru scene a womans view is so Important to us ,her first judgeing and will help us develop more <visions> for the future .

notes on the above to help the club stand managers

does your entry look good ?
are you advertsing your club ?
If it was a shop would you go in?
would you buy into the club/subaru concept ?
did you plan it out beforehand?
Cars is there lines of scoobies crushed together or just a few select modles looking their best ?

Remember we have the show Arena for the entries for the car of the day !!!
are all cars on show looking their best with spec sheets
(you will see only max 60 points are awarded for this section as there is more to a club display then just cars !!!

(lordys pet hate is someone polishing the car wearing umbro/addias when the judges are wandering around)
Is your Club HQ looking fantastic ,this is your headquarters ,your conference room and rest area Does it look the part ?

Do you have club documentation ,leaflets ,buisness cards photos etc?
Have you refreshments are they fairtrade,locally produced food, for your troops and guests?
A well fed club is a happy club ""Very imortant part of club structure this !!

Have you developed the SWAG section (Subaru wives and girlfriends ) and activies for any Subaru children as we have become more mainstream /family orintated rather then just men dressed in jeans and T-Shirts looking down at engine bays


There is many points for this so plan it out well!!

Club members make the group ############

Are they Buzzing and passionate and as excited as Lordy and the judges ?
or are they standing around bored and thinking of the Footie ?
Are they advertsing their club and scoobies or addias and umbro?
Is the club well organised with structure and meetings ?
does the appointed stand manager shine and is he committed ?

##Can he sell the benefits of the club ###
Is he/her the ultimate salesman /spokesman and purist ""

The X Factor !!!

Has the complete stand and staff got it?
Does the judges walk away thinking that was fantastic and wishing they were part of that club ?

and we are repeating again this year !!!


A Theme ####

We would like every club to come up with a theme for the day ,it can be anything scooby OR non scooby

It could be dressing up ,collections , a new display, some thing different ?
---Its your choice ----
that is your club theme for the day and you will get 30 for that and that tied up with the X factor could make you a winner ,

good luck for the gold !!

New clubs dont panic the judges are not as bad as they make out dont be frightened as we are tougher on the Big Hitters """




that is the final list of clubs now for the NBO 7

stand Managers

##PLEASE CAN YOU ENSURE THAT EVERYONE FROM YOUR CLUB WHO IS GOING IS ON THE NBO LIST AS INSURANCE HAS BEEN BOOKED NOW and the field is full ""

NOT ON LIST YOU CAN'T COME IN !!!!


see you all soon

Lordy
