No, the riders agreed that due to the floodlights, they won't race if it's wet. The track seems to dry very quickly, but we'll have to see how hard it rains.

Ever ridden on a wet road when the suns out ? Glare off a wet road surface can be blinding, imagine what that track is going to be like when its wet when its got a 1000 odd lights shining on it. Riders decided that they wouldnt race with the track like that as they didnt want to ride blind...

Edit - doh ! to slow...

Would you want to wheel one of those bikes off the track in the rain? There was one guy doing it in flip-flops!

You don't race to work though (I'd imagine). These guys will race in wet conditions that would make you cry and go home, at 100% and at 180Mph.

They want to race, it's what they do. But if it's dangerous...
