Drifting

Drifting allows you to turn sharper corners, build up boost and combo.

The game plays the same way as it did in IJJI, GamesCampus and Skid Rush; meaning you get a momentum boost from drifting. That means that at higher levels snaking will be the way to stay ahead of the pack, get through missions, get better Delivery times, etc. Also, unlike GamesCampus, Skid Rush and late IJJI, Drift Boost can always be activated after drifting; whereas in the later games you will have to rely on raw snaking to get momentum. Also unlike the later games (GamesCampus and Skidrush specifically), the car here tends to bounce off walls without losing too much speeds, how you use this will sometimes put you in an advantage spot but I will leave that up to you to figure out.

Snaking
Constantly performing an alternating drift between left and right during a straight road, "Snaking" helps player generate boost faster while maintaining or even increasing speed.

Sudden Bonus Booster (SBB)
Can be found in Yuki's Beta B, Yahn's Alpha B, and Duffy's set bonus. Read more on Set Parts.

To trigger SBB, start a drift and press Shift+Up or Shift+W at the same time when the car's white taillights turn on for a brief moment. Please note that you have to let go of the Up or W key in order to press the combination of buttons.
