Frequently asked questions
Do I need to sign in?
No. You can browse events, plan trips, and follow GPS without an account. Sign in only if you want to save and share your custom maps.
Does GPS work offline?
The map requires an internet connection to load tiles and live data. For best results, load your trip before driving through areas with spotty cell coverage.
How do I keep the screen on while driving?
The app will ask your browser to keep the screen on when you start a trip. If it locks anyway, go to your phone's display settings and extend the screen timeout.
Is this for Car Week only?
No — the map covers events year-round across the Monterey Peninsula. Car Week (Aug 7–16) is just the biggest concentration of automotive events all year.

You confirm that you took the photo (or otherwise have the right to share it), and that it does not show recognizable people or license plates you don't have permission to share — we blur license plates on your device before upload.
