Overview[]

San Diego Harbor uses the same layout as its Asphalt 8 rendition but with increased graphical fidelity. However, unlike the Asphalt 8 rendition, which takes place during the sunset, the Asphalt Legends version takes place in rainy weather.

Overview[]

San Diego Harbor is set in a naval base area, evidenced by the presence of various fighter jets and aircraft carriers. Additionally, military vehicles like tanks and armored trucks replace the traditional traffic vehicles present in other locations in the game. Still, in spite of the fact that they look heavier, they are easily traffic controlled or downed.

The San Diego Harbor tracks are among the shortest tracks in the game, alongside Dubai and Rio de Janeiro; they are 2.801 mi (4.509 km) long. The San Diego harbor tracks zip through the naval base area, through hangars, industrial buildings, and cargo containers, as well as actually going in and on aircraft carriers.

Area 51 also features both military vehicles and civilian vehicles.

The San Diego Harbor location has two tracks:

San Diego Harbor San Diego Harbor Regular version. Normally, cars like the Ford F-150, nanoFlowcell QUANT FE, Ford 2006 GT, and Tesla Model S struggle with this track.
San Diego Harbor Rev. San Diego Harbor Rev. A reversed version of the regular track with a different starting point.

In the middle of San Diego Harbor Rev. (first lap only), the player must watch out for an incoming fighter jet that flies by at very high speeds and can wreck the player's vehicle. This is especially dangerous for faster cars as they may jump higher and wreck more easily.

The following cars have their banners depicted in San Diego Harbor:

  • Cars with very quick acceleration and sharp handling are recommended here.

Glitch at 0:55

The San Diego Harbor location was infamous for featuring a glitch near the end of each track that would cause the player to be teleported up further ahead, causing shorter lap times than if the player had done the track normally. This later became the base of the Wormhole feature and another glitch in Sector 8.

The glitches in the San Diego Harbor location were fixed in the Winter Update.

Trivia[]

General[]

Asphalt 8: Airborne Asphalt 8: Airborne[]

  • San Diego Harbor has the third longest unplayable appearance in Quick Solo Race, lasting for five updates (excluding the More Than 300 Decals Update) since its debut. It was finally made playable in the Summer's Over Update.
  • There are no variations in time of day on this track, regardless of whether the variant is regular or reverse.
  • In the Research & Development Update, one shortcut was made harder by being blocked off with additional containers. This was reverted in the Santa's Gift Update.
  • In the Porsche Update, the pre-race cinematic text for San Diego Harbor Rev. now refer to the track as simply San Diego.
  • The Abelion Corporation runs operations in both San Diego Harbor and French Guiana. In San Diego Harbor, it co-owns much of the military hardware, the shipyard and one of the huge warehouses. In French Guiana, it owns the white spherical water tanks which feature in some pre-race screens and are seen near the satellite dish array. It also has a logo underneath the launch pad for the Ariane 5 Rocket in partnership with the C.L.G.I. Corporation.
  • In addition to fighter jets, various military helicopters, rockets and rigid airships can be seen flying in the Harbor's airspace.
  • The 2 aircraft carriers that serve as parts of the track are designated "Stubbington" and "John Norris". The former is docked near the Abelion Global warehouse and the latter is docked near the shipping container dockyard.
    • The "Stubbington" may be a fictional version of the USS Lexington.
  • There is a golden soldier statue located near the Naval Station, facing the port where the Stubbington is docked. It stands in front of a memorial plaque, between the flag of the U.S. Navy and what appears to be a color-swapped Confederate flag.
  • Curiously, there is a sign near the golden soldier statue indicating that one should take Route 33 if heading to San Diego. In real life, however, U.S. Route 33 runs from northern Indiana to Richmond in Virginia, passing through Ohio and West Virginia en route. This is nowhere near the state of California, or indeed San Diego for that matter.
  • The lighthouse located near the golden soldier statue is identical to the one seen near the track in Iceland.
  • Between August 3 - 30, 2018, an advertising campaign for Asphalt 9: Legends was featured in the form of billboards in various locations across both versions of the track.
    • These billboards re-appeared on December 13, 2018, however the extra pre-race cinematics featuring said billboards are no longer present.
    • San Diego Harbor, Munich and Rio de Janeiro are the only Time-Released Tracks to feature the aforementioned billboards.

  • "Harbor Run" is the original Asphalt 8 Airborne variant of the track, while "Carrier Break" is the original San Diego Harbor Reverse variant.

  • One of the 90" variants is named "Harbor Run", making it the first variant to have a duplicate name.
    • The other Harbor Run variant is featured in the Buenos Aires track.
    • However, if the language was set to Simplified Chinese, the first variants to share a duplicate name were titled "穿越城市". This name was used for both the "Crosstown" variant of the Buenos Aires track and the "Through The City" variant of the Paris track.
      • In Asphalt 9: Legends China, this was "城市穿梭", used as the name for the "Kita Run" variant of the Osaka track and the "Through The City" variant of the Paris track.

    • There are 4 portal locations in Cairo and 2 portal locations in Los Angeles, for a total of 18 locations.
    • At the exit locations, since the portal does not physically appear on the track, cars materialize mid-air.
      • An exception to this occurs in the "Jump Point Delta" variant, where cars materialize on the ground after exiting the final portal.
  • In "Dockside Drift", police barriers can be found not only between the first portal and the exit location of the second portal, but also between the third portal and the exit location of the fourth portal.
    • These are the first appearances of police barriers outside of the Hunted and On The Run game modes.
  • The Grand Prix loading screen gives some info about this track.
    • Weather: Sunny (22°C/71.6°F).
