ABOUT US

Chargers RC is a not-for-profit club registered in Queensland, Australia.  All proceeds from membership fees, race fees and other club fund raising activities are used for operating the club and making improvements such as track rebuilds, equipment purchases & upgrades and hosting local, state and national championship events.

​

In 2017, Chargers RC moved from the Redbank Plains Recreational Reserve to its current purpose built facility at 215 Cobalt Street, Carole Park.  The new facility was provided by the Ipswich City Council with construction completed in August 2017.  To read more about our club history, click HERE.

Club race days are usually held every second Sunday, from 9am to around 4pm. Our race season runs from February until December, with a club sign on day held in mid-January.
