The only saving grace was the fact that the rear straps somehow caught up the back of the GT3 and so it didn't actually leave the trailer completely and the damage was limited a rear bumper and an exhaust system from being dragged on the ground and a new bumper and tailgate on the Cayenne. It was bad but it could have been a disaster. On returning I got rid of the trailer and bought one with a proper bulldog hitch and never used unlatched straps again.

sounds horrible.
but you're right it could have been a lot worse. same reasoning for me, the handbrake is just piece of mind while trailering.
how much weight is saved by removing the entire handbrake system anyways. anyone know?
