Join the crowd! That off-camber turn is especially wicked when its wet!

The time I had a turn3 encounter, I slid clockwise and backed into the hill on the right side, facing the oncoming cars. And since it was raining (and in Audi schools they used to have us keep both driver's and instructor's windows open) the mud came flying in the windows. Later when my instructor (did you meet Chris Rooke?) got out of the car, his helmet had much mud splatter. Funny now, but it spooked me at the time.

Sorry to hear about your wheel lug.
