That's cool man! I met Jdawg this weekend and I didn't bother to look at his controls but wonder if they are the same now!
Didn't know you were pimpin the wheelchair either!! My hats off to you as well as Jdawg!

 

after rehab I had to go over and learn how to use em. The teacher said He was amazed at how well I did. He was saying that it took people days just to be able to control the car. After about 10 minutes I was driving like normal and even had me out on the street the same day.
Only had to have 2 classes and he released me.

 

All gearheads pick up on it quick!

Thanks for sharing the setup, very cool and a really basic yet super-functional. Especially the power brake technique!

 

How do you do a burnout?

 

See the very last rev of the video. Push and twist.

 

How do you make a video while driving? I thought I had it hard with one hand one the wheel but...

 

lol. hold the steering wheel with my right hand and the camera with my thumb and index on the right hand.
Left hand on the gas/brake.

 

In the mid 80s my neighbour was flying a crop duster and tried to go under a power line. He ripped the tail off, lost his elevation control, and the plane nosed up HARD. When he lost forward momentum, the plane dropped like a stone, and he broke his back. He lost the use of his legs. A few years later he wanted to test drive a car, but he couldn't cause they weren't about to cut up the interior for hand controls on a car that wasn't sold yet. He thought that was bullcrap, so he designed a set of hand controls that just strap in to a vehicle without cutting up the interior. He started a company called Contact Technologies, which was kind of a joke since his name was Craig Lenz. My dad invested a lot of capitol, and worked for the business without a paycheck for nearly 2 years, but even a great idea doesn't sell itself. Everyone was a bit too young, and they tried to run before they could walk, and the business went under. But I think the design is still being manufactured. I'll see if I can find some info on it.

 

I doubt it but will they let you run at the track like that?

 

I guarentee it isnt easy.. ive drivin a few of his cars and its a bit tricky.. ill still keep my foot on the brake in case i move that handle the wrong way
