If, and its a big if, everything is done correctly at the new track, rain shouldn't be a major issue. If the drainage is sorted well enough there shouldn't be too much standing water and we can race. The old track used to pool badly in a few places making it unusable after heavy rain.
However, whilst we can race in the rain, we don't tend to that often. Too many fair weather fairies who won't turn up at the slightly hint of drizzle mean wet meetings traditionally consisted of Rog, Rob, Little Chris and myself standing chatting in the rain waiting for nobody else to arrive, doing a few laps practice and then going home.....

As for waterproofing - two words: Duct Tape. Its all you ever need.
