Im a completely noob at this awsome game, trying to play with the pilot assist off. Wondering if you Wipeout Pro's uses the last second maneuvre much in like sharp steep corners? As i said.. completely noob

Yes, A LOT!
side shift rules.
you can use it before ..during or after the corner.Even if you can take corner without use side shift to reduce racing line distance.
Talk to problems solver on sterring and corners he can do 141 levels on the zone
141 L's on Zone?!? Wow.. definetly better than me there.. But anyway.. thanx for quick answering.. This IS a great forum..
thats ok..any problems just ask and another player is sure to help you
Yep, sideshifting is pretty much a requirement for tackling sharp corners on Phantom class and also really helps refine your racing line. Have a look at some of my video tutorials in the FAQ thread, there's a few good examples in some of them
i use it pretty much as often as the game allows you to (given the small delay between shifts).
Might I add that ProblemSolver has actually cracked 150 zones
Edit: It can also be mighty useful for catching air with which to Barrel Roll

I probably use it between aprrox 30 and 80 times in a single race.
Same as connavar. I use it over 50 times a race. At least. EVERY corner.
Wow! i knew he was the Zone King but damn!
Also i try to always use it when going into a chicane (if theres no
straight line gap) so i dont worry about going let then right, i line
my ship up with the exit then side-shift as soon as i can, but it can
all go BADLY worng even by one cannon hit or the tinyest scrape from
someone.
so only do it if theres a gap between you and the other guys
like when im doing my average +4 sec infront of guys like yeldar
is that a challenge? cheeky monkey!
back on topic: I can only think of one corner where I don't use it... I'll try to think of summore but I don't think I'll be very successful
Glad you wanna master the side-shift technique! That'll be one less guy using me to pass the hairpin on Chenghou and throwing me out of the track, busting my race
Take note that S-S can also be used to avoid drop weapon hazards at the last minute... Usually after a while, you can see them from afar, but during the proper momentum, it can save your butt in a split-second.
Wanna know a good training ground for side-shifting? Sebenco Climb. Have fun!
