The Fun Rally emphasis and formula for success has always been the people
who attend. You give a pulse to the Fun Rally as you socialize with old and
new friends, showcase your cars, participate in events such as the track and
convoy trips, and, in effect, extend the life expectancy of the Pantera's
devoted fan club.
Please join us to forge new memories and friendships at The Orleans from Wednesday
April 30th to Sunday May 4th, 2008.
Be part of the tradition by attending POCA'S 2008 FUN RALLY. See you in Las
Vegas!
