I'd start with...
RWD
RWD Turbo
4WD
4WD turbo
FWD
FWD Turbo
and then mix and match the actual cars accordingly dependant on how many examples of each category there are.

Thing is... the mini driver of 106 driver could be a brilliant driver and going round quick... the Tvr or skyline could be driven by a muppet and going round slow and all over the place.
maybe just split it by people's skill level ? ./ let them choose.
Otherwise

And super quick group...
Then move people up and down between the groups for the final thing...
So all the cars that were super quick (out of medium group or first group if they are QUICK) - move to the super quick group.
Move any of the medium group down if they were rediculously slow (i.e. poor driving and holding people up, novice etc)...
Move anyone in the slow group up to the medium group if they had a fair pace, were driving well and were obviously quicker than people in their group.

its just a wee 5 min warm up session.... 3 groups do 1 5 min session.... its then open pit for the duration.
I was thinking car speeds as i dont know the drivers skill... not all of them anyway
