Our Story …
Having missed this rally route in 2014 we've come out of rally retirement to give it another shot.
Who could say no to a rally from Perth to Darwin?
Julie and I have done a few rallies in the past and this year we are saddling up and putting our trust (and our lives) in the hands of the Shi-Tiki Van – a 1989 Toyota Tarago with more character than mechanical integrity. This beast has racked up 400,000km, has no air-con, no cruise control, and the windows barely close. Honestly, it’s like driving a mobile sauna full of red dust – there are more cracks in this thing than a pair of fishnet stockings at a B&S ball.
We’re doing all this to raise funds for cancer research, a cause close to many of us. The Shitbox Rally is one of the biggest community fundraisers for the Cancer Council, and every dollar we raise goes straight to life-saving research.So if you want to support us – and our quest to survive another 4,000+ km in a barely-roadworthy tin can – please chuck a few bucks our way. Every donation helps, and we’d be stoked to have your support!
Here's what I'm doing …
Shitbox Rally is the adventure of a lifetime challenging participants and their cars, worth no more than $1,500, on a 7 day drive across Australia to raise money for cancer research.
The rally is not a race – it’s a fun, colourful, unpredictable adventure with participants travelling at their own pace in smaller groups. Vehicles often break down but “we never leave anyone behind” and each night is spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the day’s achievements. It all adds up to an incredible opportunity to see Australia’s vast and beautiful countryside and make lifelong friends, many brought together after experiencing cancer themselves or seeing cancer impact family and friends.
Since it’s inception the rally has been the largest fundraiser for the Cancer Council nationally.

The Impact, Outcomes & Charity
Shitbox Rally is a dedicated fundraising event for cancer research with funds going to Cancer Council.
Cancer Council is one of the largest non-government funders of cancer research in Australia. We conduct and fund research studies across all cancers and all stages of the cancer journey.
Thanks to the community funds raised such as Shitbox Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.
$50 million over the past 15 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
- A research study to develop a vaccine that protects against lymphoma cancers.
- A research trial to standardise international guidelines on melanoma removal.
- A research grant to revolutionise the treatment of pancreatic cancer.
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
