Surf Side Island

**Surf Side Island** is one of the 7 different locations in Dangerous Driving. The elements are based on *Burnout 2*'s Big Surf and Interchange 88 tracks, *Burnout 3*'s Waterfront, and *Burnout Dominator*'s Ocean View.

Surf Side Island is the only location to feature four courses. Sweeping bridges, stunning coastal views, wind farms and open sided tunnels are the trademarks of this location. The Lighthouse course is the shortest in the game, perfect for the first Eliminator. There are a couple of tricky splits to look out for, and don’t miss the Marathon course - set at night and giving a striking view of the Lighthouse. This track has 4 variations:

### Lighthouse

The Lighthouse variation focuses on the lighthouse portion of the Long track, hence the name. As mentioned, it is the shortest course in the game, and takes place at the same time as the long variation. It starts off on a bridge leading into a hairpin turn around the lighthouse and then off a series of bumps on the road onto another bridge into a right corner, a hard left that requires a drift, and then almost immediately met by a hard right to the finish back on the bridge.

This track is used in two events in the Career:

1. SUV Class Eliminator
2. As the first race in the "Works Wonders" GP

* **Distance:** 4,502 Meters

### Short

The Short course is driven at dusk, and starts after the split road on a long straight before the concave left turn. It has an open sided tunnel that drivers go through shortly afterwards and then later on three hairpin turns before the split section towards the finish line. It is the shortest Short course and the second shortest regular track in the game.

This track is appears in four events in the Career:

1. Sedan Class Shakedown
2. As the final race in "The Saloon" GP
3. SUV Class Road Rage
4. Supercar Class Road Rage 2

* **Distance:** 6,150 Meters

### Long

The Long variation opens up the western side starting on the bridge's runway and connecting to the Lighthouse variant, taking place during the early afternoon. After the two sides of the bridge is a series of hard turns that drivers will need to drift through, followed by two hairpins which can result in them getting stuck on the outside wall if they drift at the wrong time. It then connects into the Lighthouse variant in reverse, going up a series of bumps and leading to the hairpin turn around the lighthouse itself. After the bridge, the road splits in two and leads to the final hairpin turn before two more turns and back at the starting gate. It is the second longest Long course in the game.

This track appears three times in the Career mode:

1. Sedan Class Face Off 3
2. As the final race in "The Cut Berline" GP
3. Formula DD Class Heatwave

* **Distance:** 11,629 Meters

### Marathon

The Marathon variation takes place at night, where it starts with a series of turns and a chicane before a long straight that connects to the Long course in reverse, eventually going into the Lighthouse course in the intended direction, which links to the Short course in reverse and then back to an outer section with a series of turns and two hairpins before the final hard right. This is the second longest Marathon course and second longest non-Point 2 Point Track in the game.

This track appears in the Career mode three times:

1. As the final race in "The Crosely" GP
2. Supercar Class Road Rage 2
3. Hypercar Class Face Off
