Default Throwing a wheel weight

Hey all,

Managed to get my hands on a BA XR8 Ute last Saturday in superb condition.

Wednesday it threw a wheel weight while on the highway, was a hell of a crack when it came loose lol.
Was just wondering if anything similar has happened to anyone else and if they incurred any damage.

I threw one at the neighbours mongrel cat once, it missed but ricocheted off the road with a spark and put a fair dent in the roller door across the road
