Anybody going to Grattan this weekend?

I'm bringing both treaded (Dunlop SSR) and untreaded (Toyo RA1) tires and playing it by ear. But if there's a strong chance of rain, I wouldn't take only MPSC's IMHO (if that's your question). Those tires are bad in the rain and bad when temps are in the 50s. In that case, I'd take street tires. Grattan is a bumpy tricky track, so I wouldn't drive MPSC's in the wet there no matter what. There's just too much that can go wrong at Grattan.

I have Bridgestone S-03s that the fronts are drying out but have a lot of tread and the rears are slowly melting so I might as well finish them off.

No, I'm not driving but I'd be glad to talk you through the track Saturday. If it's your first time there, make sure to ride along with an instructor asap because you can get yourself into trouble there in certain spots, esp. coming onto the front straight.
