Subject: Offset along motion path?

Hey everybody,
   quick question that's been confounding me. I have a race track
simulation I'm developing for an info graphic and I have two representative
triangles that I want to animate along the path. Because they're going
different speeds, I want to be able to parent them to the path but not lock
them into a specific time so that I can animate the offset along the path.
Sort of like how Trapcode 3D stroke can animate along a portion of the
path.

I know I can paste motion paths into After Effects, but that doesn't solve
what I want it to do. Is there a way to constrain motion to a path without
constraining it to a specific time?

Brian
