: : Ahh, the wheel they have at Computergeeks.com is a Nascar Pro Digital 1, yours is a Nascar Pro Digital 2... Do you know what the difference is?
: I don't know the difference, but I will today, as I ordered a Pro 1 last week and it is due to arrive today. Network racing should be fun!
: As far as using the 3rd sidewinder for the second player, etc... It should work as long as the emulator lets you remap the controls anyway you want. I know MAME will let you.
There are not many differences. I did have a few problems getting the driver to work for the Pro Digital 1. I had to put the 5.0 driver on, even though there is a 5.2 driver, I could not get it to work right.
The wheel itself is a little different, the Pro 1 actually feels a little better in your hand, as about 80% of the wheel has a rubber grip, only about 50% of the Pro 2 has this rubber grip.
The buttons also have a different feel to them when you push them, I like the Pro 2's buttons better, but overall, the Pro 1 wheel works fine once you get the driver working correctly.
I am purchasing another one today and having it shipped to my brother as a Christmas present.
