Not sure if it's the correct way to tow but I've seen quite a few RWD cars loaded on dollies using the back wheels with the front wheels on the ground and the steering locked. If you completely remove the driveshaft with the front wheels on the dolly your going to have a nice puddle of trans fluid.

Only car I have pulled using a tow dolly was an 87 T-Bird. Drove the car on the dolly and left the transmission in neutral. Never had an issues with the trans.

EDIT: Come to think of it, I was towed home in my Trans Am with one of those trucks that grabs the front wheels. You should be fine leaving it in neutral.
