[RC] towing without brakes-my misadventure - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Ray O'Donohue rno2m@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

 This was stupid.My bumper pull trailer brakes went out (wiring,of course),and 
I "didn't have time" to fix 'em,then had an episode where I had to panic stop 
on a steep down hill.The trailer shoved the back wheels of the truck OFF THE 
GROUND,the front end of the truck was totally compressed,nose down,wallowing 
and weaving at 70 mph down hill,and the trailer nose was way up and 
weaving.....,and no thanks to me nothing worse happened than that.I fixed those 
brakes!
