Another year of Pacing for Pink is done and dusted and 2025 was a record year for WA with 27 sponsored drivers donning the pink pants in support of the McGrath Foundation and breast cancer research.

Emily Suvaljko flew the flag for the month of May, recording an incredible 22 wins in the cart for her sponsor Bella Glam (Kristy Elson).

“I’m spewing that I missed those couple of meetings when I went to Melbourne, because I probably would have won it.”

Suvaljko finished in second place nationwide, with NSW driver Robbie Morris finishing the month-long campaign on 23 wins, just one win ahead of Suvaljko who had an incredible month of driving.

Although it is still early days and all of the finer details are yet to be confirmed, Pacing for Pink founder and organiser Marg Watson has confirmed that an incredible 726 wins were recorded for the month of May in the pink pants and in excess of $100,000 was raised nationwide, with final figures expected to be between $130,000 and $140,000.

WA saw 146 winners in the pink pants.
