No, TM's FF wheel isn't out yet.

No, but ThrustMaster has a force feedback wheel in development. From
what I've heard they have opted to delay the completion and release of
their force feedback wheel until they see "real" sims that apply "real"
racing feedback in the programs. TM seems to be more interested in
providing a force feedback unit that will be more than just glitz,
one that will really enhance the "simulation" of racing. I guess they
want to see how the programmers are going to provide the "clues" and
"feedback" so they can produce a product that will enhance the acutally
driving experience and not just be "hand-candy".

I think I saw on TM site a screenshot or a gif of their force
feedback steering wheel and it looks identical to the T2 but the
difference....................... F/F. I think I'll be looking more at
ACT Labs F/F wheel.

The Thrustmaster wheel was the MotorSport GP, and it was supposed to
be out this summer.
I suppose now that the NASCAR wheel is out, they'd use that.
I was surprised when I saw the NASCAR wheel, because it looks less
like and actual NASCAR wheel than the T2.
It looks like a Momo wheel, more F1 than NASCAR.
I like the look of the pedals though.
