Yep, doesn't even matter if its in gear or not, if its in neutral and the tires are spinning fast enough it'll burn up the transmission fluid and consequently ruin the transmission. If these cars have to be towed with the rear wheels on the ground for more than say, a mile, better remove the driveshaft. If the engine is running and its in neutral it is okay since it would spin the front pump but that's not very practical...
