I was on my way home from Vegas on Weds 4/25/18 when I spotted a group of five or more Pantera's driving North on I15. Just curious if anyone knows where they were headed? Is there an event in Vegas?

April 25-29 is the annual fun rally. One of the reasons the forum is so quiet.
Would have loved to join in, this year, but alas, my cat's still not done, problems with mounting the C-4 seats are keeping the interior from getting finished. Maybe next week.
It’s a little bit unfortunate that one of the bigger (biggest?) Pantera events doesn’t seem to get any media coverage.
No pictures yet (as of this morning) - even on the official POCA webpage.
A rising tide lifts all boats.
In the interest of the marque, every Pantera event ought to get extensive coverage on every media outlet. These forums and websites and Facebook pages and mailing lists are not competing, but should be complementary and augmenting each other.
Just my .02 Lira’s worth.
I did see some pictures of the M Hotel on the mailing list. Looks like a nice venue.

I was too busy having fun at the Las Vegas rally to be messing with social media.
The M Resort is beyond just a nice place. In the 29 consecutive years that I have gone to this event, the M Resort is by far the best place that this event has ever been held at. Not only is the facility and rooms top notch, the entire staff is friendly and helpful. It seemed like their entire goal was to make us happy there. This even included the contracted security company that was station around the clock in the parking garage!

Your observation is one I agree with, Chuck . I can never recall reading anything about any of our gatherings in any media over my many years of involvement with the De Tomaso family.
Your observation is also timely, in that due to a recent resignation the POCA Public Relations board position is currently vacant. I'm sure the board would entertain anyone's request, to include you Chuck, to temporarily fill that position and also to accept a candidate statement for this year's election to perform a more permanent term of service.
As for ItalFord's query, the POCA Fun Rally has been an annual event for 37 years now. If you can't afford the outrageous

Thanks Larry. I have for a second year now paid my POCA dues. I have been receiving info about the Fun Rally for months. Since I can't go (I still work) I never paid attention to the dates. I wish would have paid attention to the dates now since I was already in Vegas for work for two days. I could have dropped by for a beer or so. Oh well.
