The RALLYTIME GPS ((TR)) was born out of the need for the safety of the competitor. RALLYTIME GPS ((TR)) is the 5th Generation of rally timing equipment. The RALLYTIME / SAFETRACK system enables the event Head Quarters to monitor, track and locate any rally car taking part in the event whether in a rally stage at a service park or open section. If the car goes into an emergency, the system itself will send out an emergency signal to not only Rally HQ but also notifies any car following in the same stage that there is a "car in emergency" ahead therefore enabling assitance to reach the "car in emerency" in the most speediest way possible.
The RALLYTIME GPS ((TR)) uses the satellite-based Global
Positioning System (GPS) time signals
to synchronise all timing clocks to the same
timebase. The RF facility ((TR)) or transmit/receive,
eliminates cables
between the Flying Finish and the End / Stop
Control and can communicate data
between controls and the competing
cars if SAFETRACK is installed.
