Woman arrested after #police pursuit – Goulburn

by NSW Police Force on Saturday, May 28, 2011 at 11:37pm

A woman has been arrested and is expected to be charged under Skye’s Law following a pursuit in the Southern Highlands this afternoon.

About 4.45pm, Mittagong Highway Patrol officers conducting speed checks on the Hume Highway at Berrima detected a green Mitsubishi travelling south at an alleged speed of 139km/h in a 110km/h zone.

When police caught up with the vehicle, it failed to stop and a pursuit was initiated over a distance of 60 km and reaching speeds of 160 km/h.

It will be alleged that at one stage, the pursuit entered an 80km/h work zone, with the offender driving through it at 135 km/h.

Police sought authorisation to use road spikes in an attempt to stop to vehicle. These were successfully deployed about 10 km north of Goulburn.

The sole occupant of the vehicle, a 36-year-old woman from Queensland, was arrested. She is currently being assessed in hospital, after which she is expected to be charged with police pursuit – not stop – drive dangerously (section 51B Crime Act Skye’s Law), exceed speed and drive speed dangerous.

Yes saw all the action on the way home, had two police cars come past me travelling up to Sydney doing well over 160kph, another 4 mins up the road they were set up on the other side of the road with the spikes ready to deploy sitting on the cop car bonnet. Would have gone another 3 mins up the road and could just see in between the trees in the middle of the road a car flash by with cop car and sirens going as well. Wanted to go back to watch all the action would have been a good show.

When I drive past they had the woman on the ground out of the car in one of the turn around areas. There were about 5 police cars parked there too.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
