Default 50/50 weight ratio?

Hi, I was wondering if it was the cars weight ratio that make some cars do wheelies(camaros, trans ams, mustangs). I rarely see hi-powered corvettes or dodge vipers doing wheelies, they just seem like they hook and go. So is it the weight ratio that does this?

Weight ratio effects this, it's also the suspension setup. If you have a car that does wheelies and it is 53/47 and you go to 50/50 it'll be on the bumper big time.
