Someone should do east to west and driving X hours but since crossing timezones they end the drive at the same time they started

That implies driving at the same speed as earth rotates under the sun for the given latitude.

At the Arctic Circle (~67° N), that's 654 kmph. At the equator, it's 1,674 kmph. Good luck!
