If its proper wet then nobody will be going. I cant see the ACU sending teams out in wet conditions when wet tyres arent allowed. Inters or slicks (harder than a wet compound) heavily cut to a wet pattern are allowed. However if its only part wet as in 1994, 2003 you can manage on Inters.

The issue now is ferry bookings, as you know a lot of slideys go home thursday. Mike Cookson has tried to change his and there is no room for vans/motorhomes....so dont know whats going to happen.

Thats right Goeff, how many times have we had to go on standby to get home, after racing was messed up by the weather, something that all teams should take into account when booking the ferry to go home. Such as dont book to go home Wednesday night for a start. Steam Packet usually manage to get everyone back.
