The first happened on the main straight when Shae Davies was pitched into a roll after his truck nosedived off a jump.
Davies emerged from the wreck unharmed, the session red-flagged as the crashed truck was recovered.
That was followed by a brief spell of green running before Matt Mingay had a similarly awkward landing off a jump at the second-last corner and was tipped into a violent roll.
The wild crash saw the fuel cell ripped from the truck and left burning on the side of the track, while several barriers required significant repair, causing a lengthy delay in the schedule.
The action-packed start has prompted doubts over the ongoing participation of the trucks in Adelaide.
