Four students from ITM Business School, Siruseri, are attempting to enter the Limca Book of Records by travelling 5,907 km in 78 hours and four minutes, in a four-wheeler.

The team will travel across the four metropolitan cities in the country.

V. Sathvik, Mohana Murali Krishna, Krishnaswamy and Adarsh Bhooshan, who make up ‘Team SAAMI’, set out on Wednesday morning from the ITM campus.

The record is dedicated to ‘all the men who respect women’, a release said.

“Women play an important role in our lives and we would like to honour them by doing something we absolutely love — driving,” said Mohan.

The journey began in Koyambedu and will end there in four days.

The car will be driven continuously and the engine will be switched off only when the team is filling fuel.

If the team is successful, they will reach Chennai by Saturday morning, the release said.’
