i at one time thought about a solenoid on the go pedal under the dash in the cab. this is a much better option though from a fellow member:

take a look at the pic and you can see the solenoid would extend causing the rpm to increase. don't know if this is the same on 12V - but it gives you an idea and something to start from. . . . .

An air system would be better. I have had various solenoids installed with mixed success. They tend to get beat up with vibration and the coils short out. I tried dipping the coils, re-soldering connections, etc etc without much more than a couple months between failures. Recently I tried a vacuum system and it worked OK, but the chain I used didn't like the vibration either and tied up at WOT.. Not a good day there.
