I cannot help i'm afraid but many congratulations on pulling this off with the new venue so quickly I hope that I did not convey an expectation that you would help out when I texted Dave. It was just that given past form I could not rule out you showing up -and wanted to save you a wasted journey.

If it is raining it will still go ahead. We adapt the racing. e.g. scratch race might need breaking up into heats/final. If there is a weather warning we cancel.
