Rip,
That 3/8 in drive torque wrench is measured in inch-lbs not foot-pounds, so it wont be enough to torque your lugs. I made that mistake when I bought it for changing my wheels at the track, got to pay attention to the details, LOL. I use the craftsmen microtorque 1/2 drive that ranges from 20 ft-lbs to around 150 ft-lbs.
edit: this is the one I use for the track http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00944595000P
