Engine blew - need a tow NOW!!!!!!!!

My FC blew about 2 hours ago. drove it to my destination on one rotor for over an hour.

I was two hours away from home when it happened, so I had no choice but to continue to my destination.

I live in wilmington, DE and I am currently in Capon Springs WV. I need a tow this weekend to get home and get to work on monday. My dad refuses to tow it with his x5 (even though hes done it before).

I have 200$ in cash in hand. I would give you my cell phone number but I do not have service out here. Please PM me if you can help or know someone who can help!!!

thats a 200 mile tow one way. you need more than $200. even if you had triple A plus that would cost you $300 extra....

If you need engine work in Wilmington, PM Scrub. I know he works on FDs, he may pull an engine on an FC.
