First of all I would just like to say a BIG BIG Thank You to all the LADS team who attended NBO 12 yesterday at LWV and once again made the NBO a huge success !. Thanks to everyone we raised £2803,66p for the Childrens air Ambulance . We were let down by a few clubs who couldn`t muster enough for a stand it seems and by a few traders who were no shows. There is nothing we can do about that so I think the amount we raised on the day was a superb effort. Well Done Everyone !. The main thing is everybody enjoyed themselves and we have received a lot of good feedback already. Hopefully next year we can build the numbers back up , please feel free to give us any feedback you may have on NBO 12 so we can improve the show for the future. The show is for the Subaru Community so please help us improve it in any way we can. The BTCC was on at Croft just up the road yesterday , Goodwood Festival of Speed was on , The Scottish rally was on and so were BSB`s at Knockhill. We book a year in advance and are at the mercy of the motorsport world who don`t announce dates until well into the new year , March in 2014 to be exact. The judging worked very well this year Thanks to Andy Rae, Rob Ostle and Chris Towers with assistance from Gus McKerrow. It took no time at all and was drama free also , Cracking Job Lads. Very well done to all the trophy winners at NBO 12 the standard of the cars was extremely high and a credit to all the entrants , superb job !. There are an awful lot of LADS members on the list below which is also a huge credit to the club well done LADS and Thanks again for supporting us . Mel has created history by being the first person to defend the NBO car of the day trophy. Many Congratulations Mel for a well deserved second win. And Judith also deserves many congratulations as a very worthy runner up , as well as being the first person (along with her Hubby) on the field on Sunday morning just after 0700 hours when only Gus and myself were present unlocking the gates etc. Well done.

Thanks again to all who attended or supported us , See you all next year at LWV :thumb:
A fantastic amount raised, especially with the slight drop in numbers. 8) Well done to all the Trophey winners - the effort put in by the owners is amazing and as the standard is getting higher & higher every year, its getting harder & harder to judge. Can't wait until the 21st June 2015 - lets just hope the weather is booked again :wink:
Chris big thanks for stepping in and helping out with the judging on the day after one of the judges didn't turn up, the new way of doing the judging seemed to work ok you will have to let me know via pm your thoughts on that and I will pass it onto the post NBO committee meeting. regards Gus
Well done all and congratulations to winners/ runners up. Gutted I couldn't attend and look forward to pictures 8)
