When Mercury is on the opposite side of the sun from us, it would take a bit longer. Assuming we're both on the same side, it would take light between four and five minutes to reach from Earth to Mercury.

Something traveling 40,000 miles per hour would require 1250 hours, or 52 days. Pretty close to two months.
