Bubbas right, since Winterjam folded we will include all VWs in the show. The buses will get their own area. All other VWs in the other.the show is about having a good time, checking out VWs and not going broke doing it. Its not about the trophies and who or what won. Plenty of buses took awards........Tims 47 just had the quality for the top award. Next year who knows what will win.
Tim's Split getting the award is actually a good thing. It tells you that anyone that participates is a candidate for some award. 8)

Agreed, i lost my dash card between getting it and parking. Didn't really care about it. Had a great time.

But Tim winning 2/3 of the drawings!!! I think it was rigged!!!! :wink:

A good time was had by all, including me. Thanks guys for putting this on, and big Thanks to the sponsors.

Spanish Flea It was rigged! Tim gave my son 20 bucks :^o Tim had the luck. I would have flown straight to vegas that night!

I should have gone and bought some lotto tickets!!

Hey everyone I'm new to the forum and to the VW scene but I very much enjoyed the No Dough Bus Show. I have more a Honda/Acura background but appreciate all forms of automotive work. While attending the event I walked around with a crane and got some great footage. Here is my edited video from the event. Enjoy :)

Yeah, I was a little surprised at that. I think last year it was more a bus show and everyone else could show up and park outside the bus area. Not so much this year. I think it still had the same cool vibe.

Well.....
Things have changed from last year.. Winterjam is no more.. We wanted the bus show from Winterjam do to the fact we were the ones who brought it to them in the first place... That is how No Dough Bus Show started... We want everyone to feel welcome at the show.... But focus more on the buses.. yes a 47 split won best of show at this years event.... Did you see the car? Come-on ...Super over the top clean... We have never really focus to much on awards at this show... It's not the top priority...I don't even want to do trophies.... not my thing.... It's about a weekend of hanging out with our friends in the VW community.... As far as I know, this is the only show that doesn't change a dime to come to any of our events. VW people helping VW people....
So... Where do we go from here??? Change the name??? We where thinking No Dough Weekend ... like we did on the fliers... But I'm still going to make the buses the focus of the show..... :D :D Tell us what you think...

I agree, I was just in the NDBS mode from last year and not yet in the NDW mode of this year hence the subtle surprise. I think it was great and am an official No Dough Nut Swinger.

The green stuff was a narrowed beam and a rear swing kit for an early bus that were donated to be raffled off at the end of the day. The black stuff were the trophies.

My kid and I had a really nice time. All the large trees provided a perfect atmosphere, you just can't find those south of Okeechobee. Looking forward to next year. Many thanks to all that put this together.

Fri Apr 20, 2012 8:03 pm

Great show for sure... I think, keep it as a bus show and all others are welcome.. Its kinda like that saying (If you build it they will come.) Build the show with Buses and Ill keep bringing my bug..

A little late but I just got back to the swing of things after being in Florida for almost 2 weeks. NDBS is one of my favorite shows to start of the season. Here are a "BUNCH" of pictures for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
