THe pro digital 2 is a solid lowcost non--force feedback.(like your old wheel) Some folks here are deadset against FF and others love it. If money is tight you might want to try and find a closeout of the Microsoft sidewinder wheels, MS is getting out of the joystick/controller/wheel business and have been liquidating their stocks. Just above the TM pd2 price range would be the Logitech Momo Racing wheel, but that has a suspect gas pedal problem in early builds, and there is no way to know if the box on the shelf came from the early runs. TSW is a superb non-FF wheel but costs about twice the price of the wheels listed above. Even more expensive are wheels by ECCI and Ball Racing, Quite good if cost is not a limiting factor. dave henrie
Hey, I have the same wheel and share your dilemma. I have been asking for advice on new wheels here on the newsgroup, and have also been researching this myself , via info online. I have pretty much decided to go with the Logitech MOMO, not even considering any of Thrustmaster's products. I have owned two thrustmaster wheel in the past, and have not been very happy with either.

You can order the MSFF wheel online from CompUSA for $52. Unfortunately they are no longer available in the stores. I had a T2 for N3 for years till it wouldn't work any more. I then went to a Logitech Wingman Formula Force, and then the Momo with N4,NR2002, & NR2003. I was having problems driving, and was always blaming it on the increase in the physics model of the newer games. I picked up one of the MSFF for a spare on my second computer for when friends come over. After trying out the MSFF wheel the MOMO is now the back up that I stick my friends with. So if you are use to and like the way a Thrustmaster wheel feels I would strongly suggest going with the MSFF if you can find one online, but you better act fast. MadDAWG
I got rid of my old thrustmaster nascar pro( many,many rebuilds) recently and got a logitech momo raceing wheel (black wheel with paddle and shifter knobs) for 80 dollars. first use of force deed and loving the wheel. Great investment in my mind.
