Motorkhana

Affordable Competitive Motorsport

Motorkhana is a low-cost form of motorsport, unique to Australia and New Zealand but similar to the autotests held in the UK and Ireland. It involves manoeuvring a car through tight tests as quickly as possible - one car at a time - on either dirt or bitumen surfaces. This usually requires sliding and spinning the car accurately while maintaining speed through the test course. Some reversing is often included.

Most competitors use normal road cars like Phil Torode's Peugeot 205 (upper right). Some use specially built vehicles like Scott Bennett's Mini Cooper S powered special (upper left).
