Hi, yeah I also think there is still time to grow. There is a chance that you actually might get taller than your dad. I mean, I am the youngest in my family but I am also the tallest. It is mostly genetics and it takes time. You said you grew an inch in a year, well that is not bad at all. It might seem like its nothing but it is a lot. Keep in mind that people grow in height until 25 years of age so you have plenty of time to grow. Hope this helps. P.S. You can play some sports like basketball or volleyball because those can stretch you a bit and help you grow taller.
