It's very controversial. I used to be an avid defender of SE physics but going back to vanilla 3 I might like them more. The remade 2097/1 tracks aren't great anyways, they really fucked with the lighting on them.

Do you mean classic as in 1, or just the ps1 games?
Because in 1 shit is just hard. Handling wasn't perfected.
In 2 and 3, phantom speed becomes a problem for players that are to used to the modern wipeout engine.
That's my main gripe with HD, every turn needs airbrakes, especially at phantom. Your airbrakes are basically your regular turn.
In the original trilogy, airbrakes need to be used much more liberally. Anything below rapier and you don't need any airbrakes at all. There even plenty of courses on phantom that do not require airbrakes. One is on manor top, which I'll post in a bit.
Essentially, you are also right. When you do have to use airbrakes, they should be used before you turn, not while you turn. They should really only be tapped to, not smashed and held down for the entire length of the turn. Again, they should be used liberally. The better handling your craft, the less you need to use them. An assegai can probably get through this whole section with 0 airbraking.

I disagree

That would be cool, could be a chance to actually show off some parts of the stupidly big wipeout lore.

I like Stanza Inter but I have to admit it's only real interesting part is it's one gimmick shown here, the rest is just blind corners and once you can do one of those you can pretty much do them all.
I personally like Manor Top the best, at least for 3.
