On my Taxi, when the ball drops into the left inlane, it very often does a backspin thing and skips over to the left outlane. Does this happen on anyone else's Taxi? Wondering what causes it and how to prevent it in future.

I had the same issue. I carefully pried the wireform (left wire) a little closer together towards the right so the balls slow down more before exiting. It worked.

Excellent, glad it's not just me. I'll try that, thanks Plumonium!

I never had this issue on a taxi before mine. But my ball gets launched at ludicrous speed from Dracula.

Mine does this as well. I kinda like the randomness of it. That's pinball.
