I'll go anyway, but I will probably be the slowest one on the track.
Rain, in and of itself, will not result in a cancellation. If the track is unsafe to drive due to something like a mud flow, washout or some other serious condition, then we would cancel.

I'm bringing my race tires but I'm also bringing a set of aggressive street tires to use if it's really wet. I have windshield wipers but I know that some don't. I think they rely on something like RainX to shift the water. Wet tracks are a great equalizer. Maybe this weekend will be more a test of driving skill than car performance. Actually, the more I think about it, the more fun it sounds!
