Agree with Russ wholeheartedly - you can improve the wet braking v. dry by moving the bias towards the rear due to much less weight transfer to the front in wet conditions.
The few times I have run track days in the wet it quickly became apparent to me that a) as has been said already, visibility is critical (Rain-X is great as is a good fan/vent for the inside of the screen, and b) running a smooth line without major puddles makes all the difference. Surprisingly, if these two factors alone are considered and managed effectively that will put you out ahead of 80% of the other cars. And, ditto on getting out ahead in the wet - not looking through someone else's spray is much faster and a whole bunch safer!
Wet racing is fun in my experience because it tends to elevate driver skill in the hierarchy of factors - power becomes less important.
