    My advice is AAA Plus, with insurer as back up.  I am told  "unofficially" that the tow companies will no longer change tires for flats, or other repair along a highway, as it is simply too dangerous, and the current driving climate (often 20 MPH or more above posted limits.  Don't blame them, get swooped up as fast as you can and stay will back from the car while waiting.  Just my opinion. It is hard to find a shop with two truck here in CT, almost all flatbeds.

    AAA is the best. 

    I've called them twice for a dead battery. They were there in a few minutes and jumped the truck off.

    And one time I ran out of gas. They brought five gallons, no charge. They stayed there with me until

     the fuel in and cranked up. 

    Two other times, I needed the Roadmaster towed. 

    One of those tows, I was stopped on the shoulder. AAA asked me if I was in a safe place. I told them "no". They sent a pickup truck that was closer to stand with flashing lights , behind the Roadmaster until the tow truck got there.

    Hi James.

    It didn't mention a speed for the 60% grade other than it was able to in low gear.

    I would imagine they were only using that as a reference as that was probably it's limit.

    I just re-read your post and if you are refering to the 20mm shell, I would have to say faster than a speeding bullit.

    Probably depends on how many grains of powder it was loaded with and the shape of the projectile.
