Just to clarify in case anyone thinks that Le Grys & Howard/Crane were towed. They were towed from a standstill because of the big gear, but they did let go once they were moving, and then were moving under their own power, slipstreaming the car.
I don't think that's any less valid than downhill speeds. Plus Dave's effort had a classic Rover SD1 touring car, which is lovely.
