Pretty good, if you forget to put the lug nuts back on. (Which is what happened. That's basically the only way you could get all four wheels to fall off at exactly the same time.)
BTW, yes, you should tighten your lug nuts with a torque wrench set to 80 ft-lb. Snug them up good when the tires are off the ground, then do the final tightening with the torque wrench when it's back on the ground.
I keep a torque wrench in all my cars. It's a good idea. Even a cheap one, like this one which comes with a plastic carrying case, fits nicely behind the spare tire in the ITR.

Actually what happened was the lug nuts were of the incorrect thread pitch. THis happened at an Autox in South Ga Motorsports park, several of my friends were there.

Then how could they have possibly been screwed on?
Never mind, I think I'd rather not know.
