the ZB’s expected aerodynamic advantages have clearly convinced [Holden runners] to make the switch, despite complaints about the cost T8 has been charging for parts.

The baffling part is whether the ZB has aerodynamic advantages over the VF Commodore (which were claimed by 888 when they realised it) and, if so, why parity adjustments are not being made to the ZB as well to bring it into line with the VF and FGX?
All five models remain eligible, and as many posters say it is crucial that cornerstone technical parity must be achieved between them to prevent a "development war".

Expect that all cars complied with the regulations (downforce and drag at 200kpg, confirmed by runway test) and were signed off. Therefore it seems, instead, that it was a
highly successful homologation process!
Tickford -- one of the absolute fines, and most skilled teams in the series -- were struggling to get on the podium with Mustang at PI, showing clearly that there is no advantage at all with Mustang. Instead, podiums were shared between Commodore, Altima and Mustang which IMO showed that technical parity was already
clearly evident!
[Of course testing to confirm equivalence to FGX and VF still needs to be carried out!]

Given DJRTP, regarded widely as the most skilled team in the series by far, were barely able to win at PI and being already hurried by lesser runners, are you not worried the unqualified and unsubstantiated adjustments may unfairly disadvantage DJRTP and deny them their deserved Bathurst and championship victories?
