I am trying to see if a 2019 r21 with Bimini and board racks will fit into my 8’ high garage door? From photos I’ve seen once the E2 tower is folded down with the Bimini properly stored, the board racks actually stick up slightly higher than the tower. Is this true and anyone have firsthand experience or a measurement?

I'd guess a '19 R21 would fit no problem, as ata9977 indicated with a 2020. Might come down to how high the Bimini rests when tower is all the way down.
I don't have firsthand experience with that boat but if the racks are anything like the racks on the newer towers (2022 and beyond), it's one Allen bolt to remove the racks and that buys you several inches of clearance--a very quick, easy removal.
Contrary to the all the published measurements we see everywhere, I can get my 2025 Z3 with 15" wheels under our 8' opening with 1/2" clearance (pushing door all the way up as there is no garage opener on that door). We have to release the Bimini pins so it goes down and rests on the towels I put on the windshield to get under the opening but it clears. The front of the tower is actually higher than that tower pivot points when the tower is down, so you could always lower the tongue, if needed (if your tower has a high point like our Z3).
I'm comparing apples to oranges here but I'd bet you could fit it under 8'.
