Jonathan Oakley and his 25-year-old wife Vicky, of Ramsey, set off on the week-long Cannonball Run on Saturday.
They expect to clock-up about 4,000 miles during the event but do not know where their journey will take them, as they get handed a different destination each day.
Mr Oakley, 31, of Regimental Way, said he was looking forward to the run, during which he will be driving the family's high-performance Audi RS4.
The 4x4 car has a 515 horsepower and will be competing against dream machines likes Ferraris and Lamborghinis.
