At 80, rallyist Katie Bathena is 20 years younger than the Western India Automobile Association (WIAA) which is celebrating a century. The former wants to prove that age is no bar when it comes to driving, while the latter wants to mark its milestone in different and memorable ways.

Bathena will challenge defending champion Deepa Damodaran in the women's Rally to the Valley, to be flagged off tomorrow. The 7 am start will see Bhathena, who is part of a family of famous rallyists, being the first to be flagged off.
