weather
You want, in order of priority:
-low air temperature
-high barometric pressure
-low humidity
And you don't want a day so cold and sunless that the asphalt on the track is cold and provides no grip..... so a sunny, cool, dry fall day with a high barometer is ideal.
If its your first time, I wouldn't worry about it. Go as soon as you can, no matter what the conditions. Learning the required skills by trying will yield a much larger improvement in performance than worrying about the humidity.

I agree. Sometimes colder is not better. I was at Atco earlier this year in early march. It was freakin mid 30's out by 7:30 that night. Car was trapping awesome, but horrid off the line, and that's on Nitto DR's. Mid 40's to Upper 50's with low humidity is perfect weather.
There is also nothing worse than late evening on a humid day, when the sun has goen down, the track is cool, and all the humidity is condensing and turning the track surface into slime.... I won't run when that happens.... at least not with a huge shot of juice.
