350 was inactive in both 2002 and 2003. We came back in 2004 as 350. I think that as long as you make sure FIRST doesnt delete you from their database, you can keep the number. A good idea is if you go inactive, let FIRST know you intend on returning.
As for the thread topic:
I think that we will have no more than 1050. Even though we are gaining a lot of rookies, a ldecent number of veteran teams are dropping like flies due to the increased registration fee.
Highest team number, no higher than 1700
