Hmmm...Should I take that personally?  Naaah... sounds like Im too stupid 
to take that personally...

Always looking for good explanations on why mfrs do things, hell, Audi 
has done some pretty dumb things too.  However.. I cant IMAGINE there is 
a good nor reasonable explanation for a wing that deploys at 45, if it 
does make a difference at 45, then they better rethink their aerodynamics 
and/or rear suspension.

75 mph makes a WHOLE lot more sense. As a matter of fact, Im sure the 
rear spoiler on the back of my UrQ actually hurts me at low speeds.

Anyway... do be so hard on us!
