Lesson learned- read the rules... again.
One team at our regional had 42 points then canceled them all pout with 16 penalties. It helped us win but it sucked for the team. Most of them are also lane incursions. At our regional we had some extra fabric on our bumper and it slightly touched the red tape and we received a penalty.
