As long as you figured out the dash, you'll do well in this game.

After having it on my 360 I finnaly bought it again on my Xbox series s

[@f3rn4n2x3str3ll4]

After a long time I finally figured it out. Dash: While driving, first let go of the gas, then change to reverse gear, then change to drive gear, then hit the gas again. You can also do it while stopped by simply starting in reverse gear, then quickly changing to drive gear and then hitting the gas. Drift: While driving, start turning to either side, repeat the steps for a dash while holding the control stick in whatever direction you are turning to, and when the moment comes to change to drive gear, don't just change but HOLD the button that changes to drive gear.

for me dash works even without changing to reverse. i just press drive while already in drive and it works fine

[@Bob-tr9bb]

Thank you very much I was really struggling with that haha

[@halgay]

@@matejam2003 depends on your version of the game. pretty sure xbox 360 has it for sure, maybe pc

[@zion6680]

You can also do an imperfect Crazy Dash by staying Drive, and then let go of the accelerator, then Shift into a drive again even though you're already in drive, and then floor it, and you'll do a crazy dash too but not as fast.

People saying "why can't I jump in this" feels like people saying "why can't I spin dash" in Sonic 1

[@benjaminyoung9694]

You can jump in crazy taxi 1 tho

[@MrWii000]

The first game doesn’t have the Crazy Jump.

[@jakeklutts864]

The only thing I can’t figure out is the backwards drift. The only thing I can imagine it being useful for is setting up your parks so you are already facing out, but I already try to do that with the regular drifts. I feel like they help you stop + help you rack up on tips. The only glitch in the game that’s annoying is when you drift into a wall and get stuck. Otherwise-20+ years later and it’s still one of the best arcade games ever made. It’s both a time capsule of the era and timeless in its enjoyment

[@desireemendoza6725]

[@joseph196]

I have the arcade version and crazy dashing is very inconsistent, is there a cool down, how do I do it?

[@JMLRetroRoom]

Listen to the engine sounds and time it accordingly to when the engine normalizes.

[@benjaminyoung9694]

Practice practice practice
