A MAN and a woman have died after the car they were travelling in left the road, ploughed through a safety rail and trees and flipped on its roof in Adelaide's north-east early today.

The Holden Commodore sedan was found around 7am in the Cobbler Creek Recreation Park at Golden Grove, but police believe the crash happened several hours earlier.

The car left the Grove Way at Golden Grove - which is an 80km/h zone - tore through a safety rail on the side of the road, through trees and down an embankment when it flipped on its roof.

There are traffic restrictions in the area and SA Police Major Crash investigators are at the scene. 

The deaths take the state's road toll to 36 so far this year.

wonder why there is no poll

i wonder even more if they will post my comment was pretty harsh about commodore drivers and if it was a skyline he would of been hooning but because he was a commodore it was poor road design

Hows this quoted from the accident!!!

"Major Crash Investigators examined the scene to try to determine the cause of the accident, but police said the road was dry at the time, the speed limit is 80km/h on that section of un-lit dual-carriage way."

And if the was an import it would look a bit like this

"Major Crash Investigators examined the scene to try to determine the cause of the accident, police said even though the road was dry at the time, the reckless driver has taken the corner more than the 80km/h speed limit on that section of un-lit dual-carriage way hooning with no care of other drivers or pedestians (insert a clip from fast n furious.) Police have no idea what these hoon drivers are thinking, there must be something wrong with them. SAPOL are now taking action by putting more law inforcement on the street to defect these hoons for no reason."

It seems like it is just when a non import crashes it nothing and it wasnt their fault, councel fixes road ;) . But if it is a import all hell breaks loose and its a 30min news story about racing, hoons, clips of fast n furious and drifting. :(

    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
    • Excuse for an epic road trip?  I expect a few people would be thinking of doing that given the price.
    • That's tempting to me, but I don't know how to not f**k you around, given I'm interstate.
    • I've got a R33 turbo box I don't need if you're interested. I only ran it for a couple of track days and on the dyno before going sequential. In Melbourne, $1500 if you don't stuff me around.
