Last year, we left an hour-and-a-half later (~10:30) and arrived at Fontana with several hours of daylight to spare. Granted, we did have HKYStormFront along for the second half of the drive, and that guy TEARS IT UP. (Being a South Carolinian, he must have a good radar detector. )

This year, we should get into Fontana by mid-afternoon.
