Has anyone experienced a "jumpy joystick" problem with the Nascar Demo? For me, if I go into the joystick calibration screen, the joystick pointers constantly bounce back and forth (very rapidly), 1/6 of the total vertical and horizontal distances. No other game gives me these problems, and I play IndyCar regularly on the same system. The joystick is attached to a Gravis UltraSound, with the proper JOYCOMP value. The system is a 486/DX2-66 with 24MB of memory. Any clues?

Let me know if it works! I tried "j" and "J" and it didn't improve the X axis 'bouncing'. My Y axis has always been stable, so I calibrated that, and set the steering control to the joystick Y axis. What a nice improvement from the keyboard! I managed a 211.746 where I could only get 211.0?? before. -- Brian R. Mayer Product & Manufacturing Systems
