Clarify SMX Wording in 9.1.7.1.D.20
#38136 from Paul Gauzens · Not recommended · Minutes (2025-06 Fastrack)
Thank you for your letter. SMAC, AIM and the SCCA technical staff are working on a better long-term technology solution to the
data submission requirement for SMX.
Submitting data to AIM/SCCA has significant advantages to the competitors and was one of the key founding principles of the
class. While in some rare circumstances it can be challenging to submit your data on time the alternative is more invasive
mechanical technical inspections that will take more effort and time than uploading a data file.
This data has also been extremely helpful for AIM to proactively communicate with competitors on vehicle health and
performance issues they may not have known about.
Technical compliance through data is something imperative to the future success of the class. The most recent rule change

effective 6/1/25 calls for data to be submitted within 60 minutes from checkered flag time which we believe is reasonable while
we sort out some new technology that will either allow the competitor to download and submit data from an app, or SCCA
actively pulls the data for the competitor wirelessly in impound.
