I'm still a novice, and don't know VIR, but if I understand you correctly, when two wheels are off at track out, one should steer out away from the turn if safe, rather than keep two wheels off until control is regained.
Obviously, I know not to try to get back on the track at speed.

The reverse of what happens at T-10 at SP.Actually it is less likely that and more often that no corrective action is taken when a wheel is dropped. When that happens, the car rotates instantly, and points itself to the inside of the turn. If you drop a wheel off, especially in a high speed turn like that, you must turn out...immediately. If you wait to feel, or worse see what it going to happen it is way too late.
