DELHI TO BOMBAY IN LESS THAN 12 HOURS

The distance from Delhi to Bombay by road was about 1,450km and it was a ‘timed section’ on the 1977 London to Sydney Marathon – the world’s longest ever car rally ever, covering 30,000 kilometres, 3 continents, and 30 checkpoints in 30 days. Yes, the participants had to cover about 1,000km every day, for an entire month. Both Delhi and Bombay had checkpoints and the Polish rallying ace Sobieslaw Zasada, in a red Porsche 911 Carrerra, took less than 12 hours to get from the checkpoint in Delhi to the one in Bombay!
