Re: Need for Inspections Rules Changes

I was thinking that a lot of teams like to weigh in early Thursday, just to see where they are at with weight. What if...

...There was an inspector there so that they could immediately get a "partial"? Show up, weigh in, and anything you're ready to have inspected is inspected on the spot. Then, when you get towards noon, you have a stack of partials (and a completion or three), and have a pretty good idea of which teams need help. A list can be maintained at inspection so that teams know who needs the help the most.

If you're feeling bold, have a flag that is given out to teams. If they need help, they put the flag up in their pit. Any team with people to spare that is feeling helpful then knows who needs the help. If you're really bold, have another for inspectors--put it up if you would like an inspector to call.
