A brief email discussion with Bob Gillespie of the Green Grand Prix confirmed:

Those who have already sent in registrations are OK.
The 2016 registration form will be up on the GGP site page in a couple of weeks.

Bob added that there's a tentative 2016 schedule on the GGP's Facebook page.
I will paste it here.
Please remember that it's only tentative.
However, one noteworthy change for this year is that the public roads rally event will be in the morning, and the track events will be in the afternoon. Bob mentioned that this should only be for this year; he expects that in 2017 we should be on the track in the morning.

The tentative schedule for April 15, 2016 Toyota Green Grand Prix:

8:00 A.M. - 8:45 Registration @ IMRRC
9:30 A.M. - 12:00 Doris Bovee Mem. Road Rally on public roads
12:00 - 12:30 P.M. Lunch
12:55 - 1:40 P.M. 1st fueling for Toyota Green Grand Prix and Prius Challenge
2:00 - 4:00 P.M. Toyota Green Grand Prix and Prius Challenge on WGI short track
4:15 - 4:45 P.M. 2nd fueling for Toyota GGP and Prius Challenge
5:15 - 7:00 PM Awards Dinner

From the looks of this, we'd have an opportunity to get lunch in town rather than at the "fry shack" concession at the track. I like that.
