Of course!
What I am trying to do now is break the E break. The headlights come on for some reason when you realese the E brake, daytime running light BS.

So if I snap the cable I can keep the handle up and the headlights off. I would just keep the E brake up all the time, but I kind of want the rear drums to keep working for a bit longer.

Unlike Mercedes when you hit the brake pedal on a VW very little happens, I am sure the disc's are as large as a soup can, the the calipers are as big as a paper clip.
Whats really fun is yanking the handbrake up as hard as you can and flooring it. Kind of claws forward dragging the rear like a dog dragging its butt!

Most entertaining!
