Did you disconnect the propeller shaft?  I thought towing on a dolly at such speeds would ruin Quattro.

multiple hill starts wounded the clutch. as long as you keep that motor
at 3k you can tow anything. i booked it about 75-80 whole way down. i
did about 80 all the back, no joke 

16.6mpg down 
13.9mpg back 

v8 3800lbs 
avant 3300lbs?(no motor) 
dolly 600lbs
