Going through this exercise should save at lest 5-10 minutes on our inspection time and ours generally go pretty quick. If 30 teams save 5 minutes of inspector time, that is huge to the overall process.

I would like to point out that application of this idea (a great one!) should not be limited to just the Michigan experience. It should be a standard "best practice" for EVERY team at EVERY competition. It would make the inspection process much smoother and quicker at all events.
