I thought the left offset was intentional to avoid the pegs (since you loaded the original tube that way). Orienting the tube to the rack is obviously a big advantage in setup and limiting turns (robots like 40's Pinky and 987 have shown this). Has it ever missed to dead center on the tube and still worked? Overall, it should be pretty easy to tune the distances of the straight sections, assuming the angled backup isn't too long (hits the tube before the turn).
Again, great job! Truly amazing.
