Looks like rumble in the Crazy Taxi series is suppose to work that way:

Probably trying to recreate constant car vibration when being driven around town by a crazy person. :lol:

Update: Crazy Taxi ran perfectly with my knock-off Xbox 360 wireless controller. Rumble was exactly as expected. NOT using the latest test version of the firmware. I would prefer it be left alone. Granted the knock-off controller does have a lighter rumble by default.
This guy has been pretty awesome for $21:

Note: You can turn off rumble during gameplay with the Start button to bring up the in-game menu.

What a game, an absolute classic!

@Megavolt Would it be possible to customize controls on a per-game basis by checking the game ID like you do with the virtual VMUs? For example, in POD you could map Up on a racing wheel d-pad to accelerate and Down to break. This would make navigating the menus easier but wouldn't mess up other games.

no, it is very difficult to add control changes at this stage of development.
As far as I understand, POD does not support the steering wheel, you just need to make a list of games that do not work with the steering wheel and emulate the controller for them so that the button mapping is suitable for everyone

Gotcha. POD has wheel support (shows the wheel in the settings menu) but it just has a weird mapping.

Random but would this work with the maple bus on a Naomi/2?

How is it then played on the original steering wheel?

@megavolt85, I noticed a problem when GDEMU openMenu and Sega Rally 2, the VMU doesn't mount.
How do I debug it?
I downloaded openMenu with VM2 from here:
