Are we all in denial or hoping not to jinx the day by discussing the crappy forecast?

If it does rain hopefully it will dry out quickly on a big open airfield.

It would have to be continual stair rods to effect the runway, its just the spectators who will suffer.

I was thinking the same thing. Mines not even as fast as yours.

I've never done over 110 in it yet let alone 150+ in the wet !!

To be fair, at my lower end of the scale, rain shouldn't be an issue regarding traction, and if, IF there was an issue, I'd hope the rain would stop some sudden sideways grip/flip etc..
Might be a bit slower getting traction, but still okay for straight line acceleration.

I did it a while ago at VMAX was raining on and off all day.

Only real problem was initial traction off the line, was steady at 170 or so
