1. There's no "official" patch out yet, but there is a beta patch out by papy/sierra. The version is up to 1106. 2. http://www.sierra.com/sierrasports/forums/motor/nr3beta/ That's where you can find the patch, discussion forum and FAQ for the beta patch. When you arrive at the URL, you will be at the forum area, click on "Nascar Racing 3 Beta Build" to get the patch. You'll see the link for the FAQ. Some quick words on some things it adds/changes. Adds chat rooms to the arena servers. That way you can chat with people waiting to race and if you're in a race, can see the chat lobby outside the race too. Adds 3d wheels to the cars, which is a nice touch I think. Adds better looking sparks too, for when you brush the walls. Adds alot of other things I can't recall at the moment, but make sure you read the forums some too. Alot of people get into the FF wheel stuff. Also it can be a tad laggy than the non-patched version of the game. (Hint: Add the patch, then remove it following instructions in FAQ and you'll still have wheel fixes, graphics updates when going back to non-patch version, hehe) 3. I have never had a FF wheel, so I can't help you in this area. Though I'm sure you can find discussion about it in the forum area of the URL I gave for the patch. (Forums are included with the beta patch, hehe) 4. There's a controller 1 and controller 2 thing in Nascar 3, i'm sure you've seen that. As far as 2 different wheel/pedal combo's, dunno. I know I've owned wheels that could accomodate 4 different axis's, making me have to use both controller 1 AND 2 to calibrate it, and it worked fine. So I'm guessing if you have a wheel, or multiple wheel setup rig type thing that it would work also. But don't hold me to that quote if it don't work. ;o) Just can only say it worked for me with a 4 axis wheel. 5. Good to see you have no desire in Daytona, lol, it's more trouble than it's worth. Let's boycott Daytona!! And right on mate!!
