I tried towing a Datsun 280ZXT with the rear end up on the dolly mainly because the non-running car was parked with it's nose up to a building. Needless to say about 5 miles down the road, I pulled into a truckstop and turned the car around on the dolly. For 5 miles it had swayed back and forth, and almost made the tow vehicle wipe out from the swinging and swaying.
A porsche 911 would be better with the heavy rearend up on the dolly, and the front tires on the pavement with the steering locked and in gear.

set the towed car wheels to toe out at the front
when towed backwards they will be toe in and self-steer to follow the towing RV
you also need to tie down the steering wheel to prevent play = wander
