TURBO stands for Thurrock Union of Radio Bangers Organization.   The club was founded in January 2003, by the current committee members, Gill Goldstone (admin & race control), Kerry Goldstone (scrutineer & track supervisor), Richard Whitting (scrutineer & track supervisor), and Wendy Anderson (club supervisor & treasurer).   In 2006 we also enlisted the talents of our current scrutineer Les Saunders, and our raffle organiser Marianne Saunders.

We launched the club on 22nd March 2003, and had 14 bangers attend our first meeting!   Since then the club has grown from strength to strength, with an average of 30-40 bangers per meeting.   In 2006 we had 50 fully paid up members to the club!

We have always tried to remain firm but fair.   The club rules are always posted around the walls at each meeting, and we do ask that everyone, members and visitors alike, read and adhere to them.

Roof grades are upgraded bi-monthly, at the end of February, April, June, August, October, and December.   Grades start at WHITE for the novice, upgrading to YELLOW, then BLUE, then RED.   Once a driver has achieved a red roof grade, they may never again be graded below yellow.   The only other roof grades accepted are title grades, such as WORLD CHAMPION which is GOLD; and POINTS CHAMPION which is SILVER.   Our current points leader will carry twin silver stripes.

A monthly newsletter is given free to each club member, keeping them up to date with current points positions and roof grades, as well as any current news, and meetings reports.

Thank you for taking the time to read this page, however, we feel, the best way to learn about TURBO is to check out the fixtures page and pay us a visit!   It costs nothing to come and view, and we firmly believe you'll have a night to remember!
