You can't argue that the 888 FG was the fastest thing on wheels at the time. just because JC managed to beat JW doesn't change that fact....

its was one year. Triple 8 have been at the top now in a holden for 4 years

and as shown on the weekend they are just "fluffing" around.

They just cruise at the front when they are there, because they dont need to push the car, however when they get back in the traffic for whatever reason they just cruise through the traffic, although this tends to be more obvius in shorter races

Yeah, but Tasmania took it to a new level. They were on top in every practice session, qual 1-2 for all races and win every race. And if they hadn't tripped up themselves, they probably would have finished 1-2 in all of the races.

I can't remember anyone being THAT dominant in the past few years.

At various times DJR, HRT and SBR were all this dominant, I do believe though that nobody kept it up this long, through so many changes in technology.

typically the change in technology resulted in a new team at the top.

Looks to me though as the rest of the field see them coming and go,
"they are the fastest so I'll just let them through"
and so they do just mow through the field.
