There still exists one nearly sure night leg and that is the Around the Island Race in Ft. Walton. I've finished before dark only once in - I don't know how many attempts - but I've never quit and I've never been last to finish. One night, we were sailing through the darkness spin, main and jib near the the Navarre bridge. Suddenly, the crew yells "Dock - dead ahead!" There is an immediate gybe with associated confusion. We get the [censored] sorted out and head back into the channel and immediately again "Dock - dead ahead!" It was a T-head. I missed both collisions by inches.
That said, the RTI in Ft. Walton is a catamaran classic sailing race. Your claim to being a serious racer are always subject to challenge until you have finished it.
