🚗💨 Fast & Fabulous Team in the Sh*tbox Rally: Driving Change Beyond the Road! 💙🎗️

We are incredibly proud to be part of the Sh*tbox Rally, not just for the adventure but for the difference we make together. Thanks to the generosity of everyone supporting our fundraising efforts, the Sh*tbox Rally has contributed an amazing $ 64,832,916+ to the Cancer Council.

$449,305 of these funds is powering groundbreaking research led by Dr. Ruth Pidsley in the fight against prostate cancer. Dr. Pidsley is pioneering the development of a novel epigenetic test that offers a more accurate way to determine tumour risk — especially for tumours that are often misclassified by current clinical tools. This means better diagnosis, more personalised treatment, and ultimately, more lives saved.

Your support drives this vital work forward. Together, we’re not just rallying across the country — we’re rallying for a future with better cancer outcomes.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us! 🙌

🚗💨 Well… today should have been our final day on the road for the Autumn Sh*tbox Rally!
If things had gone to plan, yesterday we would have crossed the finish line in Melbourne after a week of dusty inland adventures from Port Douglas… and this morning Miss June would probably have been nervously awaiting the infamous Sh*tbox Auction while we celebrated surviving the Rally at the after-party! 🍾😂
But… c’est la vie!
As everyone knows, the Rally has been postponed and will now officially kick off from Port Douglas on 12 July. While we’re disappointed to be missing the chaos, camaraderie, breakdowns and bad roadside snacks right now, we’re making the most of the extra prep time.
So what’s next for Fast & Fabulous?
✨ Polishing up Miss June
🛞 Checking tyres, fluids and everything that might fall off
🔧 Giving our golden girl a little extra TLC
💰 Continuing to chase donations and sponsorships for the Cancer Council
🚗 And of course… practicing our rally driving skills (watch out world!)
Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far — your donations, encouragement and laughs mean the world to us. We cannot wait to finally hit the road in July and take Miss June on the adventure she was born for! 💛
If you’d like to support our fundraising efforts or become a sponsor, we’d love to hear from you! Every dollar helps the Cancer Council continue their Incredible work saving lives.

🚗✨ 50 DAYS TO GO! ✨🚗

The countdown is officially on… just 50 days until the delayed start of the Autumn Sh*tbox Rally as we prepare to take Miss June from Port Douglas to Melbourne in all her slightly questionable glory! We travel through regional and remote towns during the rally and provide support through spending $ - given the downturn in tourism in their high season, this support is being welcomed by the communities.

At the moment, Miss June is living her best life on a Gold Coast holiday 🌴☀️ — enjoying some sea air, a little pampering, and a few more tune-ups before the big adventure.

Are we confident she’ll make it to the finish line?
👉 Sort of.
👉 Kind of.
👉 Depends what noise that engine is making. 😅

But one thing we are confident about is supporting the Cancer Council and raising as much as we can for this incredible cause - We would like to a very hearty thank you to all those who have donated money to this cause which is close to our hearts. If you haven't donated and would like to please donate here:

Also an extra big thanks our fabulous sponsors - SSK Capital, Sims Auto Electrics, King Auto Co, and BCF Greenslopes for their wonderful support for our slightly mad adventure.

If you’d like to cheer on the Fast & Fabulous Team (and possibly help keep Miss June held together with hope and zip ties) by sponsoring us either $ or in kind - reach out to us. We would love to have your stickers on our car, promote your business on our socials and you'll get a warm, happy feeling too!

Fiona and DawnFriends for 40 years, we have shared many fabulous adventures and weathered more than a few storms together. We have lost beloved family and friends to cancer, including Dawn’s father David in 2022 following a courageous battle.Earli...

🚗✨ Miss June Takes the Gold Coast! ✨🚗

Our golden girl, Miss June, has officially hit the road and made her way to the Gold Coast! 🌴☀️

With Fiona behind the wheel (praying to the Sh*tbox gods 🙏) and our lovely friend Michelle stepping up as chief navigator (aka snack distributor and moral support), with Phil following us in a proper car (just in case). She made it, looked fabulous and only coughed once, the adventure has begun!

We’re soaking up some sunshine and good vibes with the fabulous Jordan, Poppy and Zoey before the *slightly delayed but still legendary* Sh*tbox Rally, now kicking off in mid-July 🤞

Here’s hoping Miss June enjoys her little coastal holiday, behaves herself, and doesn’t decide to retire early on us… 😅

Stay tuned for more Fast & Fabulous adventures — and keep those fingers crossed! 💛✨

Huge shoutout to the legends at BCF Greenslopes for their amazing in-kind support for our Sh*tbox Rally adventure! 🚗💨

From helping us gear up to making sure we’re rally-ready, your generosity means the world to us (and will definitely make life on the road a whole lot easier!).

We’re so grateful to have you backing the Fast & Fabulous team as we take on this wild ride for a great cause 💛

Stay tuned for more of our journey… it’s going to be a fun one! 😄

Well… this isn’t the update we were hoping to share 😔💔

Due to the impacts of the war in the Middle East, the Sh*tbox Rally has officially been postponed, with a new start date of 10 July with the same route - Port Douglas to Melbourne inland.

We’re obviously gutted. We had mentally prepared ourselves (and our beloved Miss June) for breakdowns, questionable roadside snacks, and living our best chaotic lives… but apparently global events had other plans 😅🌍

On the bright side:
👉 More time to fundraise for the Cancer Council 💛
👉 More time to “refine” Miss June (read: fix things we were ignoring 👀🔧)
👉 More time to emotionally prepare for camping… again

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us so far — your donations and encouragement mean the world, and we’re still 100% committed to hitting that start line in July 🚗💨

So don’t pack away the excitement just yet… we’re just fashionably late 😉

🚗✨ BIG HORN-TOOTING MOMENT ALERT! ✨🚗

The Fast & Fabulous team is beyond excited to give a MASSIVE shout out to our very first major sponsor… 🥁🥁

💥 ** SSK (USA)** 💥

This incredible company—owned and run by Fiona’s brother, Andrew Southwell —specialises in helping small and medium organisations buy and sell businesses (basically, making big moves happen behind the scenes 💼✨). If you want to check them out, have a look here 👉 https://ssk-us.com/

Now let’s talk about their AMAZING support…

🚗 $110 sponsorship fees going towards running the Sh*tbox Rally
💛 $200 donated directly to the Cancer Council
🔧 $1100 in in-kind sponsorship (hello auto electrical work, mechanical service & all the bits and bobs Miss June desperately needs!)

Honestly, we could not be more grateful 🙌

Because of Andrew and the team at SSK, our beloved Sh*tbox is getting some much-needed TLC and we’re one step closer to making it from Port Douglas to Melbourne (fingers crossed she behaves 🤞😂).

From the bottom of our hearts—THANK YOU for backing our crazy adventure and supporting such an important cause 💛

🚗💛

Most business owners are proud of their team and the solid organization they have built. And they should be. Years spent growing your company, and someday you are going to want to harvest its full value. When that day comes, do you know what your company is worth?

🚗✨ Sponsor Love Alert! ✨🚗

We are feeling VERY lucky (and slightly more roadworthy 😅) thanks to the amazing Simon from Sims Auto Electrics!

Simon worked his magic on our beloved Miss June 💛 and we can officially say now has a CB and a brand new antenna installed. From sorting out the electrics to making sure we’re rally-ready, he’s been an absolute legend.

We’re also beyond excited to welcome Sims Auto Electrics as one of our incredible In-Kind Sponsors for the Rally 🙌 Your support helps keep this shiny gold girl on the road and heading all the way from Port Douglas to Melbourne!

If you’re local and need auto electrical work done, we highly recommend Simon – top bloke, top service ⭐

Thank you for being part of the Fast & Fabulous journey, Simon – we couldn’t do this without you! 💕

Fast & Fabulous are feeling all kinds of grateful, excited, and just a little bit emotional… because thanks to YOU, we’ve officially hit **$6,000 in donations** for the Cancer Council! 🙌

Every dollar gets us closer to making a real difference, and honestly, we couldn’t do this without the incredible support from our friends, family, sponsors, and cheer squad. You legends are the real MVPs 💛

🚗✨ Fast & Fabulous Update! ✨

Well… she’s official! 💁‍♀️💛

Dawn and Fiona took our beloved Sh*tbox, Miss June, out for test drives over the weekend — now proudly sporting her official Sh*tbox Rally stickers! Safe to say she’s turning heads (for all the right… and slightly questionable reasons 😆)

From her golden glow to her “well-loved” character, Miss June is officially rally-ready… or at least rally-enthusiastic! 🚗💨

And what better way to celebrate than catching up with fellow rally legends and supporters yesterday at the Stones Corner Pub! 🍻 So great to swap stories, share laughs, and admire each other’s wonderfully questionable vehicles — the Sh*tbox spirit is alive and well!

Bring on the adventure, the dust, and the memories — Fast & Fabulous are ready to roll! 💃✨
