I went to attend a wedding in 2007. I drive a Mercedes C Class from Delhi to Chennai. It took me 2 days! But well worth it.. Thank you Golden Quadrilateral... Beat that you one uppers :-p
congratulations for covering the distance in 18 hrs.the thrill has only to be experienced.i brought my old fiat car from mumbai to bangalore in 1983 and i had the company of a mechanic who drove most of the part and i took the wheel when he felt sleepy.

few bikers from bangalore travelled bangalore-pune-bangalore in 28 hrs...... they had set a target of 24 hrs which they could not break due to rains..........
That too without license.No stops mind you. But it was pretty fast. No helmets.just a backpack.Though I had a nike hat on. Yeah the mist situation was similar, visibility was bad. I flew Jet Airways. And yes, the airhostess were pretty cool,but camnnot say the same about the lady who sat nent to me. Well done Parishit, great drive!!

I have freinds who have ridden across china and it is posted online. Open your eyes, you think people in china are prosecuted for sneezing.
Mumbai to aurangabad 7 hrs usaually buses take 10 hrs plus. pune aurangabad 4hrs. jalna, Pune nagpur. Nagpur amravati. nagpur wardha. Mumbai nashik. clocked 2,26,000 kms on my rx-100. I still kept the lean stallion, will never dump it. all this in 94 to 2001 when roads were bad, especially mumbai pune highway. everytime there is to bad acci for a display that would sober me up for 30 mins, then again drive at 100 plus speed, but never rash or cutting.

oh yes forgot to mention those times all roads used to 2 lane highways. NH-4 and NH-8 were killers.
