we had rain, and sleet, at our school. I was in a rear drive ITS car as well. I had old BFG R1 rains and it was slick, but doable.
I've run full tread RA1s on my street cars in the rain and they were great. I think you will be fine on them. I don't think you need Hoosier rains or Dirt Stockers for school, plus you can use the RA1s for your first season.
The Roebling repave is interesting. For me anyway, I dropped 2 seconds to 1:24, but some of the fast guys didn't like the bump at the exit of turn 8. For me, there was way more grip in 3, 4 and 5, plus more "line" in 4 which used to be a place you could really get into trouble. So, overall, way better for me.
And ditto what K said. After my "wet" school, I have had a rain race ONCE, and I put the car in the wall twice during that race.
Unless I MUST HAVE the points, I wont' run a wet race in a high torque rear wheel drive ITS car with no brakes.
