I haven't noticed. But have you noticed this, in P-Mar project before the huuuge jump, there is these S-chicanes, and before them is a jump. Now, if you 'fly' over those chicanes the craft moves itself like it would go through the chicanes.
Can you say doeas the "wagtail" effect work on all jumps or is there a spesific jump were it works?

I think it's just the pre-Fusion external camera which is placed to the centre line of track and not directly behind the craft itself.

So THAT'S why the camera always felt different after Fusion! *headdesk*

i like the wagtail feel from the camera actually! lol, its also very strong in some parts of wipeout 2097!
i think its because it might be what gives some of those classic wipeouts part of there feel?

just tested it out in P-mar! wow lol

I like it because it is a likely speed effect.:D
