As soon as you allow wets you need a spare set of wheels, also a lot of people would have 2 bikes one wet and one dry to save them changing wheels which means they can delay their decision on tyre choice to the last minute giving them another advantage. The best thing about DD is the one make tyre rule as it simplifies a race weekend, in other series where wets have been allowed I have changed wheels 10+ times in a day and still been out on a wet with slicks when the heavens opened, also done dry track on wets too LOL

I'd be all for dry racing only and any wet meeting postponed
