It was pretty sad to see that this morning on the way to Heathcote guys, after seeing it 1st hand it was very very very lucky no one was hurt or killed, I can tell you it made me slow down a little on my way up to Heathcote today. I timely reminder to all of us about the dangers of towing cars. I'll be going out to buy a couple more extra heavy duty truck tie downs this week that's for sure. Good luck with the rebuild. Cheers SLY
