'''Toad Harbor''' (written as '''Toad Harbour''' in the | '''Toad Harbor''' (written as '''Toad Harbour''' in the PAL version) is the second race track in the [[Flower Cup]] of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', as well as the longest track in the game. This course takes place in a seaside town with some similarities to the city of [[wikipedia:San Francisco|San Francisco]]. It also features a statue on an island off the harbour modeled after the [[Statue of Liberty]] with [[Princess Peach]] as Lady Liberty, holding a [[Fire Flower]] in her lowered left hand, and a [[Super Star]] in her raised right. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] and [[Wario]] each have cable cars patterned after them in this course, each with some [[Toad (species)|Toads]] as passengers and a [[Koopa Troopa]] as the driver. [[Toadette]] is used here in [[Mario Kart (series)#Time Trial|Time Trials]]. There are 47 Coins located on this track. | ||

''This island track showcases an entire marina with sail boats and a train station (that acts as a short-cut to some power-ups), a market and a shopping area, as well as a vertical wall section with anti-gravity.'' | |||
''The track features several areas that seem to be inspired by American cities, such as a steep cable car hill (à la [[wikipedia:San Francisco|San Francisco]]) and a Statue of Liberty in the harbor (like in [[wikipedia:New York City|New York]]).'' | |||

After turning right, there are two paths; the right one goes over a bridge while the left path allows players to drive onto a boat with a ramp. Racers will be starting to enter the town after this point. They can continue driving right, though they can either go straight through, take a Boost Pad, or drive on top of the market tents in the area. After that, a shortcut can be taken upon driving over a narrow path and jumping off a ramp. | ||
After a few turns, drivers reach the top of the hill and perform a U-turn past the Toad Toy Store, which provides this course's only anti-gravity section. If players stick to the normal path, they have to avoid oncoming cable cars. If the player attempts to follow the cable car rails after the station, Lakitu will come and hoist the player back to the road. Whichever path was taken, both lead to a steep downhill part of the track leading back to the coastal area, with more cable cars to dodge. If players somehow land on the cable cars going down the steep hill, they will gain a short boost, and can actually perform a trick off of the roof.
