The ability to compare flying skills is the core of IMAC competition. For years, IMAC pilots have looked for a way to compare their performance against their peers across regional and international boundaries.

In the latest version, IMAC incorporated a "percentage of perfect" to the Score 4.25.1 program that shows how pilots performed relative to the total possible points available for a sequence. With that addition also came the ability to compare pilot to pilot performance across large geographic regions (in this case, the entire world). The latest SCORE version automatically calculates the PP for each pilot and the IMAC web scoring system has been updated to allow all IMAC members to compare their scores/skills to every other IMAC member in the world. The system allows filtering to display results by class or IMAC region.

Although there are many variables unaccounted for in this method, IMAC is providing each pilot with the AVERAGE of ALL their scores through the season for KNOWN sequences only. This method does not include UNKNOWNS at this time, and uses ALL scored KNOWN sequences. The reasoning is, Knowns follow a common drop schedule allowing the pilot to drop low rounds particularly in the case of mechanical difficulty, etc. Unknowns are still vital to contest results but normally cannot be dropped and may vary from event to event, The best comparison basis is by restricting the formula to only consider KNOWNS. So for now it will NOT be an ALL INCLUSIVE ranking system.

Regional points are NOT affected by PP Data. The IRPS continues to be the IMAC standard to compare the ranking of pilots within the 6 U.S. Regions. IMAC hopes to refine this system in the future, but for now, have fun!
