With some (rare) exceptions, your run group assignment is purely, 100%, a factor of your tracking experience, skill (lap times) and the respect with that group that you've earned as a cooperative driver. I've run in various advanced groups with a 100% stock car (three-point belts, OE tires, no cage).

Keep your car on the track surface with no drama, show the situational awareness to get faster traffic around you quickly and safely, and you will be promoted to a more advanced run group.

SCCA seems to be the most restricted and I would say outdated of the bunch- for example they require a cage and harness in Time Trials and yet not in Club Trials. The wackiness being, some (many) cars in Club Trials run faster laps then the Time Trials group :-)
