It isn't a protest. Regardless of the outcome of this meet and greet, the result cannot be changed as you cannot protest a decision made by a Judge of Fact. (NCR 181A (i) )

They use neither. They have laser devices in the lane, and two loops 5m apart at pit entry.

If there was an error in the distance between the two loops, then more cars would have been pinged for speeding.

If the transponder was faulty or failing, the timing team would have been able to detect that and therefore not put as much trust in the result. It wasn't faulty or failing

At this juncture, Supercars have an absolute time measurement over the 5m distance. The only way that anyone could possibly say that Supercars is wrong is if the team has one source of information that clearly shows the time taken to transit the lane. Linking data to video to assume where a vehicle is (to a margin of error of 0.0212 seconds as taken from spooks post above) is not going to be feasibly good enough to be relied upon.
