That noise sounded nasty.
That's why Porsche Roadside Assistance around here (S.W. Ohio) sends a special flat-bed tow truck equipped with a driver who knows how to do that correctly.
One needs to install the towing eye into the front bumper hole and use it to winch the CGT onto the flat bed.
Porsche's local towing sub-contractor has a hinged rear section on their bed that lays down on the pavement and allows the front of the car to be loaded level to road and then have the bed tilted up some more to winch it onto the bed the rest of the way. It's a very cool special type of flat bed on which any car with poor front ground clearance can be safely loaded without using those make-shift wooden ramps and such.
