When the driver put my car in 1st gear the car pulled to the right VERY nearly sliding off the front roller.

If it would have happened at 8000 rpm in 4th gear it would have been a nightmare. The guys were on the case and done a good job as they took their time and rerouted the straps.
OMG, it's just relieving to know everything went well!! That would have been a right nightmare.
