The SURE GRIP hand control system was specifically designed to give drivers the benefit of controlling a vehicle with both hands on the wheel making for a safer, smoother driving experience. Unlike other manual hand controls, the SURE GRIP operating handle is in the vertical position… giving you that precise control you’ve been looking for. Accelerate by rocking back through an arching motion with the fingers and/or the palm. (View Gas Demo). To apply the brakes, simply push forward (View Brake Demo).
SURE GRIP’s compact design permits a non-intrusive installation allowing conventional driving with the controls still in place. For performance or everyday driving, SURE GRIP offers a hand control system that keeps you in touch with the road.
