Trivia[]
- This event is directly linked to Asphalt 8's sequel, Asphalt 9: Legends.
- This event has a full tire-refill time of 5 hours instead of usual 8 or 12 hours.
- One tire is filled every hour instead of the usual full set together, just like Streaming Passes in World Tour and Enduro Invitations in Enduro Double Down.
- This makes it unnecessary to waste tires to always end on 0 before next refill. However, the 1 hour timer resets after a tire is used.
- Championship events that are launched, including relaunches of old ones, after this one follow suit.
- One tire is filled every hour instead of the usual full set together, just like Streaming Passes in World Tour and Enduro Invitations in Enduro Double Down.
- This Championship has the following firsts:
- The first to have quotes that break the fourth wall.
- The first to award Pro Kit Engine and Tech cards individually instead of a box.
- The first to use a car released prior to the Championship Update.
- It is also the first not to award the event car as the Finale reward, as well as the first where the featured car has decals.
- The first to only have 2 tours instead of the standard 8.
- The first to have Classic races as qualifiers.
- Lasting 3 days, the Asphalt 9 Championship is the shortest special event ever released, even shorter than the Peugeot RCZ R's Research & Development event, which lasts 5 days.
- It is also the first event not to have a main reward. While the Volkswagen XL Sport Concept is given to Asphalt 9 players when completing the event, nothing is awarded in Asphalt 8.
- This makes it the first event to have its main reward given to another game instead of Asphalt 8 itself.
