Signature Takedowns (Burnout 3) was Burnopedia's Featured Article in September 2010.

Signature Takedowns are a special variety of Takedowns in Burnout 3: Takedown.

To perform a Signature Takedown, a player must Takedown a rival into a specific object or within a specific area during a Race or Road Rage event. On the Crash Nav, a Takedown icon represents the location of a Signature Takedown location. DJ Stryker also provides Takedown Transmissions, or hints, during the world tour about a targeted area in the circuit.
