Now for SoCal generally that can be dangerous, because it is sprawled over hills and valleys, so the rain runs off irregularly, leading to mudslides, etc.

But SA is not on a hill or in a ravine or the like. It is on the flats. 2 inches of rain is just 2 inches of rain, just like it would be a Calder or Saratoga. And there are many days Calder takes 2 inches of rain in an hour. Sloppy track--no big deal.
It's not the track its the drainage system.. I dont like poly but the poly isnt the issue if they were at HP they would be running. They will need to replace the drainage system even if they switch back to dirt which we all hope and think will happen.
