Detailed guide
Bahia’s first kart circuit
Antigo Kartódromo Municipal do STIEP was an outdoor competition circuit in Salvador and an important venue in the state’s karting history.
Competition history
Ayrton Senna won a race here in 1979, and the circuit hosted the 1988 Brazilian Kart Championship. It served owner-drivers, teams and organised competition rather than public rental karting.
Historical record — current operation unconfirmed
Historical accounts describe closure in the early 1990s and later property projects at the site; that dated history does not confirm current operation. Do not plan a karting visit from this historical record alone; confirm the venue's existence and access directly.
