That's why there is an audible warning at around 95 mph to let you know that your wing (when it's been shut off) is still in it's lowered position at a speed that it's really necessary.
Apparently my car can accelerate faster than the wing can deploy and the warning will sound. This is what I have been told from MisterTaz because he did it in my car and I dont have an off switch like +fireamx describes. I wonder if drive like this has an effect on tire wear beacuse when the weather gets better I will be trying it! Again and Again...
