Well I've lost a lot of money on punts over the months, so my luck was bound to change - right?

Crazy taxi was a simple Naomi board loose! Woohoo! £255 working Crazy taxi.. Not bad???? It gets better!!.... Inside - Look what I found...... ;)

Safe to say I swapped that out and is now in the house

they all run from Naomi, but this one is rather special as its a Rev A naomi board, which works as part of a multiboard system in games like F355 - which I own :)

Very expensive to buy as is, or right now - impossible to find!

I don't find them hard to find really, half the ones I have bought have been the right ones for F355

I have about 5 spares at the mo

Crazy Taxi is great game, one of the last good games in the arcade

Sorry not for sale as I need them for my machine, Already got through about 4 boards in the first year, has been a nightmare reliability wise but seemed to settle down now and been good for a good while, so need all the spares I can get, it maybe 4 workers still, I lost count I have so many with all the faulty ones

Wish we could repair them, as it's gonna be a nightmare if they get hard to find. I remember when I got my Jambo Safari machine, was in a bit of a state but for £92 it was a bargin, that also came with a Rev A mobo in it and was the first pcb I used to repair the F355 after it died the night I bought it

Probably harder to find now, I don't know but people were saying that a few years back when I got the machine, I havent looked for a while

you need to get the hang of the speed boost to get really good runs on crazy taxi. i think its downshifting then fast upshifting from a standing start

I've been trying to do those on my cab, I though ya pushed forward shift and accelerate at the same time, been some years since I played it on the DC

I thought it was Acclerator twice quick and then shifter forward, great when you get used to it and you can start getting better scores and have a good tour round
