I've been watching it on various websites every day and the rain moved from all day Sat/Sun to Sat afternoon and Sun then just Sunday so it stands to reason that it will keep moving.

At least it's sound logic to me and I won't hear of anything else. I'd prefer to race in the dry, but if it rains we all have the same conditions so it's still a level playing field I suppose.

I'm staying in me caravan if it rains cos i'm a wuss

I'm more concerned about only having 1 warm up lap.

Can you imagine 36 loonies on cold tyres tipping in to turn 1?

Carnage

Yep and the worst bit it it's not even the full circuit-the tyres will be stone cold.

There's an idea!!

Rules say no tyre warmers, nothing about hot air guns

I'll just talk to our tyres for 10 mins - that should do it!:P

Nah - It will warm our tyres for us - just move em a 1/4 turn every 10 mins before the first race
I'm still taking me hot air gun though!

I mean it's too hot for me

I don't work in anything over 20 degrees, or under 15
