Default Tips/tricks to driving on wet pavement?

Hey guys,

George (pro71bird) and I are competing in Truckin' Magazine's Throwdown event on Friday in Fontana and the weather looks like it will be less than favorable. Apparently in California there is occasionally this weather condition called "rain" which is where the temperatures usually drop a bit and water falls from the sky. I've never seen it personally, but my grandma told me about it earlier today and it sounds like it'd be fun to see.

But while I'm looking forward to seeing rain for the first time, I'm told that it makes living my life 1/4mi at a time a little more tricky, so I've put in some phone calls to my friends who race on a regular basis to get their input and thought I'd ask you guys if you have any advice for me as far as how I should adjust my chassis setup and driving style.

We'll be competing in 1/4mi, Speed stop, slalom and AutoX and I'll try and get pictures of the rain so you guys can see what it's like.
