Nascar2 Demo Pauses during race

First, great demo.

Okay, now to gripe and complain!
I noticed during a race or qual or whatever, that the screen freezez for
about half a second periodically as if it's pausing for a disk swap ala
Win95 style. I'm in total dos mode, though. Kinda tough to race, I
rear-ended a couple of guys because of this, and hit the wall too. Reminds
me of what people were saying about ICR2 in Win95, .....disk
swap....Wham-o....hit the wall! Anyone else have this occur?

System:
Intel P5-166
64 Meg EDO
Matrox Mellinium w/2 Meg

Config.sys:
-device=c:\windows\himem.sys
-DEVICEhigh=C:\VIBRA16\DRV\VIBRA16.SYS /UNIT=0 /BLASTER=A:220 I:7 D:1 H:7
-DEVICEhigh=C:\VIBRA16\DRV\CTMMSYS.SYS
Autoexec.bat
SET SOUND=C:\VIBRA16
SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 H7 P330 T6
c:\logitech\mouse
