No. The popular outdoor rental track Bay Karts (formerly at Titoki Place) permanently closed in July 2024.
Do not drive there expecting to race; the track is gone.
Since Bay Karts closed, there are no petrol go-kart rentals in Tauranga or Mt Maunganui. Your nearest options are:
- Rotorua: Raceline Karting (Off Road NZ) is a 50-minute drive south. This is a world-class outdoor track.
- Hamilton: Hampton Downs is about 1 hour 15 minutes west.
BayActive (at Baypark, Mt Maunganui) offers Electric Drift Trikes and Blokarts (wind-powered karts), but they do not have traditional petrol go-karts. It is a fun alternative if you just want to slide around, but it is not "kart racing" in the traditional sense.
It is at 154 Alley Road, Te Puke.
Directions: Turn off SH2 into Manoeka Road, then Quarry Road, then Alley Road.
