My understanding is that vehicles with track width greater than their height are OK,
unless they're explicitly excluded.
In the case of the non-Abarth 500s and other cars that are in the "excluded from Street category" list, I don't know whether or not making sure they follow that guideline is enough to include them in the higher categories. I imagine if you were going to run any kind of sticky rubber you'd want to be more than just barely under the line.
edit: For what it's worth, looks like when they're classing cars they want (0.5 track / height of C of G) to be at least 1.3. Here's the text in the SCCA draft (SSF is static stability factor):
Quote:
SSF is defined as ½ track width (T) divided by the height of the center of gravity above the road (H) and can be calculated by the formula SSF=T/2H.
Vehicles with an SSF of less than 1.30 should not be permitted to compete in Solo® events due to the higher risk of rollover.
