Route 8C is a fairly short, pleasant drive. After the submerged section at the beginning of the south eastern end, Route 8C was a very easy drive with no other detours, missing bridges, submerged sections or detours of any kind. Route 8C offers a nice mix of open views, and built up areas, and also a nice mix of hills and elevation changes along the way.

This guide starts at the southern end of Route 8C at an intersection with Route 8, right next to Japan Hiroba. The Route almost immediately becomes submerged, but you can rez a boat and sail across. I got out my amphibious car to travel 8C, and I had a bit of trouble getting it up some steps so I could drive into the water, but I made it! :) The submerged section is not very long, so you wouldn't be missing much if you simply flew over and started your journey where Route 8C comes back on land (see the SLURL below).

End of Pavement

Route 8C submerges here, but continues underwater. keep to the right of some red glowing posts in the water to follow 8C.

Route 8C Water Rez Zone, Valeyard

You will want to look for a dock with some steps going down to the water, this is the start of paved 8C. Unfortunately there is nowhere for my Amphicar to climb up the embankment, so Itook it back to inventory and walked up the stairs. Thankfully the rez zone extends up onto the pavement, so I could rez my scooter again.

Huge Truckstop build located on eastern side of road here

This place is worth seeing; it's a truckstop with a Roxoil gas station, a Rodex diner, garages, Smith's frieght and gas, and many other industrial buildings to drive around. It spans between Routes 8C and 8A. I got kinda lost in the place, and ended up on Route 8A, I had to turn around and find my way back, lol.
