haven't used Nero for a while but theres definitely a way you can set the gap in in between tracks on there. If you set it to zero (which is what you want for bootlegs) there will be no gap. Will try remember how thats done.
Nuts, this probably isn't the solution you're looking for but there is a piece of CD ripping software called CDex which can rip a whole CD or part of it as one file rather than as a series of files containing one track each. I haven't tried using it to copy a continuous mix CD but I have used it to copy a very tricky CD which had music in the points between two tracks where the track time is a negative number: if I ripped it as separate files there was a gap so I ripped the two consecutive tracks to one file.
In the case of a continuous mix CD you could rip it as one file using CDex you could then burn the whole file to CD as one track. However, if you've got audio editing and/or CD burning software that will allow you to put track markers in and burn a CD without gaps between tracks you could burn it on to a CD as a series of tracks.
You can download CDex (which is free) from this site:
http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/downloads.php
If you download it to rip a whole CD as one track click and drag so that all the tracks on the CD are selected, right-click on the mouse and select "Extract partial CD track".
You can't make a CD-copy in Nero? If you only have one drive, you should be able to use your HD as temporary storage for the CD-image.
Of course, your CD-burner has to support DAO, i.e., Disc-at-Once...
