UPDATE: DNS root caching?

Here's another strange thing, I can now do all nslookup at my nameserver
machine --then my clients can do nslookup on that particular domain just
fine. But if I don't do "nslookup nascar.com" then my clients can't do
nslookup nascar.com. So it seems the NS doesn't go to the root server
somehow?

I've done dig @a.root-servers.net . ns and pipe it into named.root file,
I've stop/start named. Bind is running w/permission of named:named not
as root.

~$ nslookup www.nfl.com ns1.sky.net
Server: ns1.sky.net
Address: 209.90.0.2

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.nfl.com
Addresses: 64.253.196.251, 64.253.196.252
-----
~$ nslookup www.nascar.com ns1.sky.net
Server: ns1.sky.net
Address: 209.90.0.2

*** No address (A) records available for www.nascar.com

Does the above indicates there's a problem w/my root caching? I can do
nslookup on most sites, but not on some sites, ie. displays on nascar.com
What do I need to look/check for? named.local? named.root?...been at this
for a couple of days now. Running Bind 9.2.1.

Thanks.
