    I have this problem too - with just a standard Gravis Analogue Pro. The main
menu spins around of its own accord - other in-game menus are better, but they can
still flick to a different option at the last minute, just as you press return.
The worst effect is that if you finish a rally in the top 3, you are usually
treated to the celebration sequence where the top three cars drive up to a display
ramp. With the joystick problem, the sequence finishes straight away. I have
actually found a workaround - if I hold my stick top-left during this sequence, or
whilst using the menus, everything is fine.
    My stick is calibrated okay - no problems at all with any other game.
