It sounds like a hand throttle would do the job. Pretty much hook something like a bicycle gear shifter to your throttle, which you can then use as a sort of cruise control for the throttle (pretty much what you're saying you do with your foot but easier to hold at a certain TPS). Some offroading guys like to use them, so that's where I would start looking for info and ideas.
