That's surprising--low-numbered tracks should be the easiest to read.

At the expense of sounding like a complete idiot, have you checked the
alignment of the drive?   It's not uncommon to get a batch of disks
written with alignment slightly off (blame whomever you  want).  I keep
an "unaligned" drive around to tweak when I run into those cases.
