What would happen if you got towed in a car whilst in reverse and lifted clutch up at 60mph traveling forwards
Answers:
The engine would rotate anti clockwise.
As reverse gear and 1st gear are the same ratio, the engine would be turning over excessively fast which may well result in some mechanical damage particularly if you dropped the clutch very suddenly.
bye bye gear box, bye bye tyres and possibly bye bye life
BANG!! (where am i??) (whats that light??) then we can watch you on Youtube and say what a knob!! then leave bad comments and poor rating!!
ps: you cant get towed in reverse then clutch it going forward!(unless the rope broke on a hill!)
Why ?

It depends on which end of the car was off the road when it was being towed and if your car was front or rear wheel drive!
A load of scrap metal on the road for you to clear up if you are still alive
BANG, and a lot of expense - if you're still around!!
if the gear box would hold up, you would one lucky camper
