Just so you know, if you had a "tunn" of ballast in the back, slamming all on could have done you a serious injury even if you didn't hit anything else in the process.
We do a lot of loaded testing and jamming the brakes on (even with it all strapped down) causes the ballast to move around a lot. Tightening the ratchet straps down as tight as you can, still lets it move 3 or 4 inches under heavy braking.
