Tempo Race Anyone?

Care for a 1000 Km (590 mile) drive in an auto-rickshaw ot what is more familiar to us by the name of the Tempo? The race is from Chennai to Kanyakumari and the entry fee is 1,500 Euro (well, I am sure they are not looking for people like me and you) and the proceeds (some parts?) go to the charity. I saw this at the BBC and as usual they have some good pictures along with the story.

The Indian Auto-rickshaw Challenge is strictly fun, without any prize at the end of the race, the organisers say. ... A total of 16 teams comprising 50 people are in the race. Two of the teams are Indian.
