Motorkhana

Motorkhanas are motor sport events designed to test the acceleration, braking and handling of cars and the skill and judgment of drivers. Most importantly, motorkhanas provide fun and enjoyment whilst practising and learning car control. Oversteer and understeer will be found in abundance, but at safe speeds under controlled conditions.

The word Motorkhana seems unique to Australia and New Zealand, but similar events are known as Autotest in the UK, Autocross or Solo in the US, and may be known as Autokhana or Gymkhana elsewhere.

The video below explains the Motorkhana and the Victorian Motorkhana Championship very clearly.

Check the VMCi Calendar to find out when the next Motorkhana event is on.

You should also seek out Ian Grinter (Competition Secretary) and Bryan Raine (Assistant Competition Secretary) at the next VMCi Monthly Meeting; both will be very happy to answer all your questions.
