Overall, I was pleased with the forecast for Petit Le Mans. Initially, there was a lot of uncertainty about the timing of rain, but that came into better focus with the 9/29 forecast update. Ultimately, most of the rain came in a narrow window between 8 am and noon Friday. With the fast movement of the cold front, the rain ended earlier than expected Friday, and temperatures dropped more than expected Friday night. Timing is everything.
