I've started to play it, since yesterday, and kinda get hang of it, but i'm still kinda fresh, any tips, or strategies, to help out.

 

Turn off pilot assist if you ever want to get good at wipeout (or getting trophies). Pilot assist slows down your acceleration, caps your speed and prevents you from making good turns or drive in stright lines (through curving areas).

Know the tracks like the back of your hand

side shift if you are clsoe to or rubbing against the wall

Learn to use airbrakes without slowing down.

tilt the ships nose up before a ramp to get an easier barrel roll

(in Zone) do not panic when you start hitting the walls, this will result in oversteering

If a boost pad is out of the way, just skip it.

save weapons to use for perfect situations

When starting out, use ships like feisar and aggesai for better handling.

do the boost in the beginning of every race (a la mario kart)

practice.

 

Those are pretty much the fundamentals, other than that, there are special tricks and strats given the track you race on.
