Ok, I'm familiar with Solo-II, I take it that all three are similar with
varying degrees of differences i.e. Solo-II two cars at a time racing on
mirror courses driving against the clock and each other while driving through
obstacles and autocross is one car at a time against the clock on a coures,
which makes both a gymkhana. HaveI understood this correctly?

<I believe (not certain) that gymkhana refers to any contest primarily of
skill, while an autocross is a very tight road course (usually defined
with cones on an expanse of concrete), run one at a time. The VTR
funkhana would be an example of a gymkhana (well, maybe except the
"change the water pump" and "toss the piston rings" portions <g>). An
autocross is a gymkhana, but a gymkhana isn't necessarily an autocross.
There is more info on the Sports Car Club of America's autocross (which
they call Solo-II) at
