Does the SLR wing not deploy just for braking...? Or is it one of these speed variable jobs...?

Of course, what we forget is that the McLaren F1 started all this off, by not having a rear wing. It was only fitted with one for racing, to give traction, which hit the top speed really badly.

Personally, i think supercars should have stupidly big wings - the F40 being the prime example. i felt cheated when the enzo came out without one.....
