[s-cars] 2wheel tow feedback...&heres some from me

[chris chambers]

I suggest either drive it back or trailer it back.

I don't think you will have much success trying to drop the driveshaft
to tow it, removing the driveshaft is a big PITA and I believe you have
to lower the exhaust system to do so.


Good luck in your trip, and yes have that V1 running!
