America’s Challenge began in 1995.

For the first few years, position reports were embargoed for hours in order to not give any team a competitive advantage. Over the years, due partly to the advances in tracking technology, we have been able to track the progress of our competitors in real-time. Below are the final tracking maps from the most recent events. Click on an image to take a closer look.
