Slow and steady with a winch is the ticket imo. Have seen no change in specs in either car. I assume the track loads are much higher than hand tight trailer straps anyway.
Sadly I don't have a winch... using a GoPro displaying on my phone to line the car up instead.

Since I know the approx gap I'm just keeping to close on the side with the camera. My trailer does have ~6" vertical "walls" around the sides and front so the car won't fall off.. but a wheel might suffer if I screw it up. I plan to load/unload with my original set of 1LE wheels - one has a chip so screw them all! ha
