Also R82 refers to a "single primary adjustable, relieving, pressure regulator". It does not say how it must be adjusted.

I'm not arguing the point, just trying to understand the scope of the applicable rules. Maybe it is worth a GDC query.

Since this is safety concern as well a possibility of an unfair advantage if the pressure exceed 60 psi on the field expect a lot of scrutiny. As an robot inspector, "impossible" would be very difficult to prove to me. I am very imaginative. It is also something I would refer to LR since he is the final say for the event and this is a corner case. (The LRI has many resources he can call on for guidance, but he is the final say.) So short of a Q&A in hand, I wouldn't count on it being legal at a competition.
