Tracking the Sirius Rally Team at the Alcan Winter Rally
The BC contingent of the Sirius Rally Team is together in Squamish and preparing for Saturday morning’s departure. The Rom Comm tracker is online and can be viewed through the following link:
http://www.romcomm.net/romtrax_md/
The following information is required to access the Sirius account:
username: rally
password: rally
On some computers a map may be visible on the main screen. To view the team position in Google Earth, from the main Rom Comm screen, check the box next to ‘Sirius Rally’, then click on the Google Earth icon. Google Earth provides an accurate and detailed map, but it’s not absolutely required. To use the Rom Comm map server, click on the ‘Sirius Rally’ text from the initial menu. This will open the Unit Detail screen, and clicking on ‘ROM Map Server’ will show the team position on a map. In general, the Rom Comm site can be navigated by following directions in the left hand column. The site also has a date range feature that shows all the tracker points for a set period of time, plotting the route as the team travels.
Please email siriusrally@telus.net for troubleshooting suggestions. We’ll do our best to get everyone interested in tracking our adventure online before the official start on Sunday AM.

about
Our Rally Team is composed of enthusiasts who are Stage & TSD Rallying in the Pacific Northwest….
In February 2008 Jennifer Daly, Gordon Ryall and August Ustare joined up to compete in a 5000 mile rally from Washington into the great cold North and back again. The Alcan Rally began in 1984 and is one of the major driving event challenges in North America. The Sirius Rally WRX wagon carried the team to an 11th overall finish, and second in class IE. The rally began in Kirkland WA, traveled north to Tuktoyaktuk on the Arctic ocean, and finished in Jasper AB. The BC crew was joined by Evans and Josh Keatley from ON and AB, in their rescued Subaru Forester, and Bill Beers and Doug Heredos in a Dodge Ram truck. The Sirius team took second place in the team competition.

Hi J.J!!! Hope you’re having a lot of fun!!! We are all following your progress as you go, this is neat. Have a great and safe time!!!!
Love all of us
Just back from visiting the kids in St. Thomas. We followed your progress all day and will continue to do so -looks like you are just passing through Williams Lake so it’s only another hour and a half to go. It’s great to watch your progress. It shows a couple of stops along the way, so hopefully one of them was for a new tire. We are enjoying the web site commentary and pictures too. The Rex looks great. Say Hi to Evans and Josh and to your new team mates from Oregon. Sounds like you guys will make a good team.
