There was never a parity issue with the AU, it was just a sack of crap. The front splitter was completely flawed and you couldn't run over a blade of grass without losing the entire front splitter. Only fixed by grafting the bottom of the VT splitter to it. Also you strangely ignore the AU running a second faster the next year in the Dunlop series... The car was fine after the splitter change, but the teams at the time could never get on top of it.
Then SBR came out after it and thumped everybody with their BA.
if Ford hadn't coughed up 888, Ford would have won just about everything for the last 15 years, and the blame for that wholely rests at Ford's feet. 888 has dominated more or less since their entry, and dominated for longer than DJR, HRT or SBR were able to in their respective tenures. Maybe we're seeing another one of those changes now.

How about the Hyundais having their boost cut and being disqualified from quali a while back, imagine that happening in Supercars?
