Rennes, August 16, 2018 — Thrustmaster announced today the release of three new accessories designed for players seeking an optimal and expanded gaming experience.
Taking advantage of the latest in e-WRC, Thrustmaster is expanding its ecosystem to provide the ultimate experience for players in search of perfection with the release of the TM Racing Clamp on August 20 and the TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod + and TM Sim Hub on September 20.

1. TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod +

You asked for it, integrated into console games*, and here it is: the TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod + is PC-compatible with every racing wheel on the market. The major “+”, and the new feature of this TSS, is its console compatibility.
- For PS4™* with the T-GT and T300-Series Thrustmaster racing wheels
- For Xbox One* with the TS-XW RACER and TX-Series Thrustmaster racing wheels
This feat was only made possible through the development of a proprietary cable needed to enable communication.

This new product will also have all of the advantages of the previous version, including of course the Thrustmaster H.E.A.R.T. technology and the high-quality metal and aluminum materials.
Thanks to a collaboration between Thrustmaster and Sparco, there are two modes available in order to provide the best possible control during your most intense races:
- Progressive handbrake mode
- Sequential transmission mode

To enjoy the TSS Handbrake experience on your console, the product will retail for: €259.99.

Box contents:
- Progressive handbrake/sequential transmission
- Removable knob
- Mini Allen wrench
- Allen wrench
- Open-end wrench
- Removable DIN/USB cable

2. TM Racing Clamp

TSS HANDBRAKE Sparco Mod +
TM Racing Clamp
TM Sim Hub
 
I can tell everyone that getting the Sim Hub takes forever in the U.S.

Ordered through Amazon on April 10th and estimated arrival is June 11th. It’s almost like TM builds them per order. Maybe there’s a better source than Amazon but nothing that I could find through an internet search.
