Each week, the NASA Support Request system populates with questions about everything from technical rules to medical questions and things people couldn’t find in the NASA Club Codes and Regulations.
Entering a support request would put the NASA National staff in motion to get the answers members need in a timely fashion. Now, there’s a newer, faster, more direct way for NASA members to get their questions answered, and its name is “Speedy.” You will find Speedy at the bottom left corner of DriveNASA.com.
According to Speedy, it is “your NASA Racing Rules Assistant, here to help answer questions about NASA series rules and explain the NASA CCR. Please note that while I provide detailed information based on official documents, I am not an official NASA representative. How can I assist you today?”
Powered by OpenAI, Speedy pulls information from all corners of the NASA digital ecosystem to get you the answers you need. That includes the CCR and class rules, among other resources.
“Its sole purpose is to assist users by providing clear explanations directly from the NASA rules and CCR. It goes beyond simple searches by interpreting and presenting relevant information drawn from official sources and select supplementary documents,” said NASA Chief Technology Officer Roman Vaisman. “So, if you ask it about licensing and medical, you’ll see it. It will respond with cohesive answers.”
It is a remarkably powerful tool. The next time you have a question about anything related to NASA rules, or you want to settle a bet with a buddy, why not give Speedy a try? In fact, try this question first: What does a yellow and a red flag displayed at the starter stand mean?
You can find Speedy ready to serve you at DriveNASA.com.
