first of all if he was pulling anything at that kinda speed then he was asking for troubles and it was verry stupid to do. but thats my 2 cents. i wouldnt know what he did tho.

Wow no gauges? Man thats asking for trouble. What else happend did it shut down or lock up or did he just blow white smoke out the tailpipe. Hopefully he didnt blow a gasket and drained the coolant out and overheated the engine.

There's a reason they tell you to slow down when you tow and keep things cool. He did something stupid, he will pay the price.
