==Stunts== The game features fast arcade-style gameplay, along with a variety of [[taxicab|cab]] 'stunts'. The first stunt is the ''Crazy Dash'', a forward burst of speed that can be pulled off in succession. To trigger the burst, the player must shift into 'drive' and directly follow it with the 'accelerate' button. The rear of the car is forced down somewhat, lifting the front end. For multiple dashes, hit 'reverse' and then again 'drive' immediately followed by 'accelerate' (known as the ''Limit Cut''). A variation called the "Crazy Backdash" involves performing a Crazy Dash and then shifting into reverse, so that the car reveses with a burst of speed. A side-effect of these three tricks is that the car gains massive traction and limited steering, which can be exploited by players to more easily weave in and out of traffic. It can also be exploited to do a "Crazy Stop", where after a Crazy Dash the brakes are applied and reverse gear engaged, causing the car to stop almost instantly. This causes the rear of the car to lift up, as if front wheel breaking is applied. Another stunt is the ''Crazy Drift''. This is accomplished by quickly hitting 'reverse' and then 'drive' while making a sharp turn. A final, position-specific stunt is the ''Crazy Jump'', which goes off automatically if the player goes off ramps or other sudden inclines. Despite being violently thrown around and not seemingly strapped into the taxi in any visible way, passengers are usually appreciative of stunts and reward the player with bonus fares upon successful execution (i.e. not hitting anything). Mastery of stunts is essential for attaining high scores in the game.
