To do this kind of Crazy Drift, you veer a little bit in the opposite direction you plan to face when you skid while moving the gearshift ( Reverse > Drive), then steer hard in the desired direction and tap or hold the Brake Pedal ( Turn Wheel > Brake).

It's based on the belief (common among some elderly drivers on the road) that it's always good to "turn a little bit left before turning right." This is the way some of the other Crazy Taxi sites have advocated doing the Crazy Drift. Tapping (or holding) the Brake Pedal after you've started a Non-Braking Crazy Drift will cause your cab to continue in the direction it is skidding, but without that "forward traction." In other words, during the skid you retain some traction in the direction your cab is facing. It will also slide a considerable distance in the direction you turn the wheel. Unlike the Braking Crazy Drift described above, your cab will not continue in a straight line during the skid. This version is simply done without using the Brake Pedal ( Reverse > Drive > Turn Wheel). There are some additional variations of this move: This will ensure that you don't become a victim of wall-stick. If the destination is backed by a wall and time is short, do a Braking Crazy Drift, but give yourself time to make sure you rotate enough so that a rear corner of your cab strikes the wall. You can't count on getting the others to work until the speed burst from the Limiter Cut begins to subside. Unlike the other versions, the Braking Crazy Drift can be done soon after the speed burst of a Limiter Cut. You can use this to your advantage when traffic is light to run up fares by making very long Crazy Drift Combo skids without worrying about missing your destination.
Holding down the brake pedal from the beginning to the end of the Crazy Drift will keep your cab from veering off course when you start skidding.Īs shown in the diagram, the front of the vehicle will remain on target, while the back swivels in the opposite direction you turn the wheel. I find myself using the Braking Crazy Drift variation described above around 95% of the time when dropping off customers. It has several variations in addition to a special move you can tack on to the end. This is easily the most versatile move in the game. If you turn sharply enough, you will begin a Crazy Drift Combo and successively increasing tip amounts will be added to your fare until the cab stops skidding. When you do the Crazy Drift, your cab will turn sideways on the screen and skid. It involves several actions done in quick succession: This move must be done while your cab is moving. Hold Brake > Reverse > Drive > Turn Wheel I'm no huge fan of the bike for other reasons, but must admit this effect is a huge crowdpleaser.
When you do the Crazy Dash from a standstill, occasionally the screen will remain in a fixed position as the bike zips away, rapidly growing smaller and smaller.Ī second or two later the screen will "catch up" again. If you happened to select the bicycle as your cabbie's vehicle, there's an additional surprise. The greatest thing about this move is that it leads to even higher speeds, as you'll see when you get to the Limiter Cut below. That's why it's better to take your foot off the gas and try again right away.
There's a "dead zone" between moving slowly and your cab's normal floored speed during which you are blocked from getting this move to work. If your cab is at a standstill and you mess up the Crazy Dash, quickly take your foot off the gas, letting the gearshift return to the neutral position, then try it again. If you want to turn your cab while Crazy Dashing, wait until you see your cab moving forward before turning the wheel. If you do, you may get a different move, the Crazy Turn, instead. It'll automatically kick in as soon as the animation is completed, saving you precious seconds over the long run.ĭon't turn the wheel all the way to the left or right while executing this move. This move can be "buffered in" during the passenger entry/exit animation.ĭo the Crazy Dash right as they start climbing in or just after their feet hit the ground as they're getting out.
Glad you asked! Here are a few additional points.

Your cab will zip off, going noticably faster than its normal floored speed for a short period of time. When you do the Crazy Dash from a standstill, your cab won't burn rubber as it slowly picks up speed the way it normally does.Īll of that energy gets converted as if the wheels had 100% traction.
