As a reminder, Circus Circus Hotel has set aside a block of rooms for Fun Rally Attendees until May 11th.  After that date, rooms may still be available; however, prices may change.  Best to grab your rooms by Tuesday,

At this year's Fun Rally, attendees will have the opportunity to Join the people of Reno as we turn back the clock and journey through time to the '60s and '70s. Whether we keep tradition and call it the De Tomaso Car Show or flow with Reno's new event, the Rock 'N' Roll Revival & Classic Car Show, this ought to be fun. 
Reno's new weekend celebration includes a Car Show on Virginia Street in front of Circus Circus and the other Casinos, showcasing all makes and models of cars including classic, muscle, hot rods and our special display of Panteras! There will be live music by Shake, Rattle & Roll, Tony Vee, Michael Bartle the great Elvis impersonator and more! Plus lots of craft and food booths. 

The City is excited about our presence and providing special mention of the Panteras in their advertising.  Since this is the inaugural event and still in development, more details will follow.

As is tradition, the CHPIE Chapter's President will select a Pantera deserving of the Gary Powley Memorial Award. In addition, the Stanley Cooper Award will be presented to the most desirable stock Pantera based on the opinion of the POCA President, Mark McWhinney.

At the top of every hour, starting at 10:00am, we will lead the assembled De Tomasos in our Concerto De Tomaso. On cue, all De Tomasos in the Plaza will start their engines and rev them up in order to let the people feel the roar and announce that POCA has arrived.

I hope to see you there

Fun Rally Co-Chair
