The Rock
The Rock is the only returning track in San Francisco Rush 2049. Following its debut in San Francisco Rush the Rock: Alcatraz Edition, this rendition takes place after sunset, with a new starting position, terrain changes, and new shortcut near the shoreline. As with all Rush 2049 tracks, player can now collect coins hidden throughout the track, which was not possible in Rush The Rock.
Track Layout
The race starts behind a large patch of dirt road underneath a corkscrew loop shortcut; drivers are given the choice to take either path. After the first section, the road branchs into a higher and lower left bend that takes drivers to the Barracks and Dock section. This section has a long stretch of road, as well as a high and low shortcut on the left and right sides respectively. Once all of the paths meet up, drivers will take a banked right turn above water, that will take them above the island. another long stretch of road follows, with the choice to take a dark sewer shortcut on the right. If that shortcut is not taken however, drivers have to make a hard left turn shortly after, which takes the driver to a large jump over the prison. After the jump, the race concludes with two banked left turns that take the driver to the starting line.
Fast Times Strategy
Special Edition
All three laps are ideally ran identically. At the start of the race, take the corkscrew on the left side of the road, then take the upper path that leads to a jump when approaching the docks. Drive on the road until approaching the tunnel on the left side of the road, that runs underneath the prison. Drive into the tunnel and perform the dome stunt at the end of the tunnel. Drive straight into it, then downshift into third gear once the car hits the wall (listen for the collision noise,) and drive right. This is best done by driving on the outside of the green arrows (left side,) rather than directly following them. If done correctly there should be hardly any speed loss. Continue down the tunnel on the right side, then slow down the car right before the exit to mitigate jump velocity and lost speed. Continue down the road by turning left, and finish the lap. Repeat by taking the corkscrew once again.
