You'll have a good time. I did Phase I in the rain in DC a few year's ago...longest slide I've ever had, about 150 ft. sideways across the parking lot. No damage. It was fun.

I have done 2 & became less slow. Rain isn't bad-it forces you to be smooth and magnifies mistakes-this is a learning process, not a race so wet pavement isn't bad. And, probably 20% of all auto-x's end up in the rain so it helps you there too.

Tracy did awsome out there. Even though it was my first time auto-xing the Vette and my tires are the crappy F1 GS2s, she embarrased me by a solid 1.5xx seconds:o 
She was definitely one of the better drivers out there today.
Tracy, it was good meeting you. Am sure I'll make down to your neck of the woods this season and TRY to give you a competition. Good luck!!
After watching you today, I am really leaning towards the KDWs.
