This video from the slow cars enduro restart after dbl yellow 2 years ago still makes me laugh.
Gear grinding, curb hopping, landscaping, and lots of passes.

Every year I plan to run this race and every year something gets in the way. Some years (like this one) it was money/budget, some years it was the car not running (too many to count), some years it was a conflict with a trip we were taking (LeMans, Canada F1, etc). This is the closest race to my house, and I have NEVER raced it... I will be there Friday, but not to race...

If that's the forecast it's been a lot worse than that in the past!

Is schedule going to be the same as the 2017 one posted on Clubreg? Specifically, is White enduro going to be at 12pm on Sunday. Trying to make a decision on flying down versus driving.

There is now a 2018 Schedule posted on ClubReg and it has the White Enduro starting at 12 noon.

The forecast has been notoriously inaccurate the last month/year/decade.

If it says rain, it's usually at the end of the day, often when people are OFF the track...
