I was just being nice.At 140 MPH on a wet road in the rain, the tires aren't even touching the pavement anymore. They're so far past the point of hydroplaning even a thin sheen of water on the road is effectively hard as ice. So I'd argue that whether or not your wipers are staying on the window is the least of your worries. The bigger concern (regret) you should have is why you didn't decide to lift 70MPH ago while your tires still had some decent grip.
I guess I wasn't explicit enough in the original post. I was thinking about entering a 1/2 mile or mile event. Other cars I've had the wipers started raising up from the docked position at high speeds in dry conditions. I was hoping the wings would keep the V wipers solidly in place and not moving around at very high speed events. The question was not meant for everyday driving.At 140 MPH on a wet road in the rain, the tires aren't even touching the pavement anymore.

Well yeah, they do that and reduce the drag coefficient of the car overall, this is common knowledge. But seriously as others have mentioned, just remove them during a "high speed" event. I have never seen a single drag race at any level of performance that the driver had his wipers going, pretty sure the best wipers in the world could not keep up at those speeds. If you are track racing in the rain, your tires will lose traction long before the wipers become a concern.
