I live by the mentality of 'if it dont make you go fast, take it out'. I took it out of my old car and it doesn't exist in the coupe either.

There is no need for an ebrake regardless if the car is driven or trailered.

Having a car with a manual tranny makes the e brake a little more important due to the fact that you cant just throw the thing in park and let it idle while say, checking the timing, fuel pressure, etc. Leaving it in nuetral on any kind of a hill while its running and you'll be chasing the thing down the street.
