I think The Grinder really ought to handle this itself. Please open a bug.

You need to add an exception handler, and also update the statistics. 
Something like:


grinder.statistics.delayReports=1

try:
  myRequest.GET(...)
except InterruptedIOException: # Assume its because of a timeout
  grinder.statistics.forLastTest.success = 0
