Quite honestly at Championship I would be ok with:

-Robot weight
-Bumper check (weight, height, mounting)
-Frame perimeter check
-Safety checks (check for current through frame, stored energy check, pneumatics power up run through)

Thats it. With the weights being taken care of at the scale, I would estimate an inspector could be in and out of a pit in 5-10 minutes.
