Nascar 2/99 will support only 2 buttons.

I beg to differ.  I cannot speak for Nascar 99 as I dont have it, but the
original nascar 2 lets you use all the buttons.  I use the wheel buttons on
my nascar pro to shift in all my racing games, including nascar 2.  But I
don't know why his buttons 3 and 4 wont work.  I would guess that maybe he
has another joystick plugged into his gamecard that is causing a conflict.

In some configurations with split axis pedals, N2 will only recognize 2
buttons.

Do you use this for on TEN too Richard, if so, how ???

Yep.  Even in the Win95 native EXE, it will not support the shift
paddles on the MSFFW !!!

The Win95 EXE part of Nascar 1999 is a total dissapointment, and it's
supposed to be one of it's bigest features :(

Richard

This is much appreciated as I used this in the TPTCC, but that was
offline and I could do this manually before launching the game, I`m
gonna try this tonight, thx

Sometimes I hate myself for asking those questions

So how was your Atlanta race then Richard, any good pileups ?

> How about you?

Well since I`m not racing I`d have to say that hypothetically I`d end up
in race full of "Atlanta heads" running 5% sprint setups, and once the
setups got away from them they would then be running all over the track
and most likely one of them would collect me as my LD setup started to
show it`s strength, I`d say I`d end up in 13th or so, about 5 laps down,
all hypothetical of course since I`m not eligable to race

Somehow I wish I was running in a fixed division, at least the setups
aren`t a danger to everyone on the track, you only have to worry about
the drivers, which of course can be bad enough :-)
