The Mystery Box Rally is a long-distance motoring event run in Australia as a fundraiser for cancer research, an annual event which began in 2013.[1]
Mystery Box Rally sees teams driving 25+ year old cars along a mystery route.[2]
The event
editEffectively, a team of two needs to raise a minimum of $4,000 to participate in the rally. The only stipulations for the car are that it is 25+ years old and that it's not an AWD/4WD vehicle[3]. Costs of vehicle registration and roadworthiness checks are not included in the budget, nor are some safety items.
At post event celebrations there are awards presented to the biggest fundraisers, and other awards are given in various light-hearted categories which may change at the whim of the organisers: "Least likely to make it"; "Best car"; "Best team theme" (dressing up the vehicle is part of the fun, but not mandatory); "Best breakdown"; "Best repair"; "Spirit of the Rally".
