Ok, first of all sick Mini... but... I am not feeling the wing... As you've clearly built it to go fast then why would you put a wing on a fwd car... Pushing down rear wheels does not help you at all... So it seems to be useless weight - also not good for speed... Or have you converted it to rwd?
Otherwise a really awesome Mini(Y)

The the slow corners you want to be able to "set" the car into the corner. This requires a very lose rear end. The in the fast corner you do not want to the rear to step out and that is where the wing comes in. It doesn't produce any downforce at low speed, but at high speed it does and keeps the rear in check.
Also if you drive on slicks it's hard to keep temp in the tires, especially the rears of there is no weight on them.
You do need an adjustable wing as every track requires a different setup.

Holy hell. This is quite possibly the greatest Mini EVER!
My mom's got a Cooper S JCW. If only hers was anything close to this beast.
