I have noticed on the longer tracks (Talledega) that the car will
sometimes jerk into the wall on me. This is even after the v1.3 patch.

Any solutions?

The same thing happens to me.  Before the patches N2 wouldn't even see
the joystick, and after the patches the calibrations are erratic.
Solution??  I just gave up on Win95 mode and I play it in DOS.
Calibration in DOS is excellent.  That "jerk" has sent me into the wall
more than once :(

A dirty potentiometer in your steering wheel could be the culprit. You
can spray the pot with Tuner Control cleaner and lubricant, which can be
found at Radio Shack.

Possible, but the only thing about that is the fact that I am using a
joystick.

Yeah, same deal though cause your joystick still uses a rotary
pot.

From what I'm led to believe from talking to others, there's still a
problem when using Nascar2 (1.03) and your modem at the same time...
I'm told that the car will still jerk once in awhile and I can say
I've experienced this "happening" while online with others in direct
connect mode... If you're racing a race without being on the net or
actually being online somehow.. you shouldn't run into this problem,
but I can't be 100% sure on this.

I am running it on my own right now, but I will be playing online
soon. I am looking at getting a wheel, so we will see what happens.
