If wets are allowed into DD then to be competitive you will need 2 bikes, with a wet and a dry set up otherwise you will be at a disadvantage to those that can afford two bikes when it rains just before we get called (which seems to happen a lot). This for me is not in the spirit of DD
In the short time I have been involved this debate has gone full circle over and over again and each time the same conclusion is reached.
If its wet there will always be more accidents whether you are racing with wets or our road tyres but if you crash with wets you will be crashing at a higher speed.
The one tyre rule is fundamental to keeping DD affordable.
