From how I think I understand your question, yes - but remember if you don't bag it at the end of your first event, and it's fabricated - make sure it is in the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE for your next event's load-in if you want it back.

We bagged with 50lbs or so of ballast (machined for bolt holes & therefore not COTS steel), knowing we won't use it all... but can't bring it as WITHHOLDING. It'll all go back in the bag when we lock up again after unbag time & events, unless Frank surprises us all with a change to the bagging rules after this discussion. We want the ability to pop the individual plates in and out as we add/remove mechanisms, so in the bag they went.
