It seems like everyone is arguing over different concepts regarding tire width. Fat tires increase a car's ability to apply huge amounts of torque to the road, but play a much smaller role in lateral G's. Wider tires have a point of diminishing return in relation to lateral G's, but as others have stated, the main reason this car doesn't handle well at low speeds is because of the light weight. As light as it is, it needs more than just wide tires to corner, which is why it handles so much better at speeds where downforce comes into play. As far as drag cars go, you have to remember that they are a) straight-line compettitors, and b) only fat on the rear axle.
