I agree with Bionicle, Stevce41, MOnty, chris.p and others.
Wets will not make racing safer. You'll probably find there as many fallers duing a dry race as there are during a wet race where wets are being used (wonder if any clubs have some stats on this?). Upside in the wet is it'll probably be a lowside into the mud - less likelyhood of bodily or machine damage. We chould allow the use of Ohlins TTX front foorks on the safety argument. Safety is the connection between brain and right hand.
In my experience wets will work on DD bikes but are only good for 1 race -
a bit more if it is constantly wet (standing water). Ideally they can only be used once. Using wets adds expense, hassle, stress and complexity.
We race within a set of rules. These rules and the conditions are the same for all competitors. The challenge is to get results within these rules and conditions. When we land in an unfamiliar situation (in a race, on a DD bike, wearing road tyres during a biblical deluge... in Norfolk...), it is uncomfortable (some say scary... others say exciting...). Simmilar to the feeling we all had when we ventured out onto the race track for the first time. Through practice and application we gained proficiency in that situation. This is the fun part :-)
All those riders who were out there on Saturday: over the course of the race, did you feel yourself getting better? Did you get just one corner 'right' within that situation? Did it feel good?
I have found that the amount of money I spend on racing tends to be inversely proportional to the amount of enjoyment I get out of it. DD is a relatively cheap, simple format that works. It is the most enjoyable form of road racing I've done... let's keep it that way ;-)
The only rule changes that should be made should be to encourage more riders to the grid.
