Motorcyle Leaning: Use [key] to lean. Up to lean forward, Down to lean back. Leaning only changes your center of mass. Lean back and apply the gas to perform a wheelie. Lean forward and apply the brake to perform an endo. Changing your center of mass affects how much traction you have at either end. Lean forward slightly mid-corner to induce oversteer, lean back slightly to induce understeer. In midair, lean forward/backward to do flips, and steer with [key] to spin!

Free Rev: hold [key] and press [key] or [key]
Allows you to rev your engine while stationary, then launch at high RPM for a speed boost when you release the Handbrake. Or just rev your engine for fun!

Burn Out Mode: hold [key] and [key] simultaneously at lower speeds to engage.
While engaged, use [key] to rotate the vehicle in tight spaces.
Also, if you heat up your tires a little, you can trigger a drag-race style, high-grip launch when you release [key] while stationary. The hotter the tires, the faster the launch!
Finally, on controllers with analog gas and brake inputs, try pressing them lightly to engage Burn Out Mode when coming into corners at low and medium speeds to induce a more controllable drift (works best with AWD and RWD vehicles).

Unstuck Rocking Mode: hold [key] or [key] when stuck.
Use [key] to rotate your vehicle so its wheels touch the ground. If that doesn’t work, rock back and forth with [key].
If the vehicle is upside down, use [key] to flip it back on its wheels.

Call Active Vehicle: [key]
Note: it will automatically park in the nearest available spot, provided you have street access.

All vehicles you’ve received or purchased are stored in your Garage. To mark a vehicle as active for the Call Vehicle function, access your Garage menu by holding [key], browse available vehicles with [key] and [key], then press [key] to select one.

You can hijack occupied vehicles provided you meet the Body Attribute requirement necessary to pull the driver out of the driver's seat. You can steal unoccupied vehicles provided you meet the Technical Ability Attribute requirement.
