No their team did not fail inspection because the tubing was .001 oversized, it was .010 oversized and it was clearly marked on the tubing with the OD, ID and wall thickness. It was only 1/2 of their tubing that failed, the other half had a .125 ID and was marked with the OD and wall thickness. The portion that failed was nylon which was a dead giveaway since Nylon tubing typically has a .035 or .040 wall.


Had it been .001 over then I certainly would have advocated that they were allowed to play as is with the LRI at that event.
