..but my car in NASCAR2 keeps jerking to the right while I'm trying to go straight. I have two patches from sierra.com 1.02 and 1.2 (I think). I've had the game for about 6 months and it didn't start doing this until last week some time. It makes Sears Point really, really hard when you can't go straight.. If you can help me, you rock.. --Mike

Since it only started to happen recently I would suspect that you have a dirty pot in your controller. You can clean it with a "Tuner/Switch" cleaner and lubricant (obtained from an electronics parts store). This should get you back on the straight and narrow... -- **************************** Michael E.

if it does it in Dos AND in Win95.... it's probably a dirty pot.... if it's only in win95,,,, but works fine in dos... welcome to the win95 reinstaller's club :) <thinking to himself... a dirty pot would probably pull left sometimes, too.... but ya never can tell..and it doesnt hurt anything to clean or replace it, anyway>
