Our Story …

Martin and Rob are thrilled to announce that we're participating in Shitbox Rally 2025 - Autumn! This year, we’ll be driving our "reliable" shitbox from Canberra to Townsville via the roads less travelled.


Shitbox Rally is the largest community-led fundraiser for Cancer Council in Australia and is now in its 15th year. As part of our commitment, we have set a personal fundraising goal of $8,000, although the overall rally target is set at an impressive $2,000,000.


We are incredibly proud to support such a worthy cause. Your support means everything to us, and any donation you can make will go a long way in helping us reach our goal. Be sure to follow our journey and check out our updates through our Insagram account @formula_shitbox.


Thank you for your generosity and encouragement!

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.
