That's a good one, cdfe88. I had no knowledge about Jarvis Island. Technically it would qualify as a tiny spec of the U.S. on the equator. However, it would impossible to land any airplanes on it because it is uninhabited and it would take too long to being Amazing Racers and produciton in from another island like Samoa that looks on my map to be pover 500 miles away.
Here is a dscription of Jarivs Island for those as ignorant as I was:
Jarvis Island (also formerly known as Bunker Island) is an uninhabited 4.5 square kilometer coral island located in the South Pacific Ocean at 0°22′S 160°01′W Coordinates: 0°22′S 160°01′W about halfway between Hawaii and the Cook Islands. It is an unincorporated territory of the United States administered by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service of the United States Department of the Interior as part of the National Wildlife Refuge system. Unlike most coral atolls, the lagoon on Jarvis is wholly dry.

there's also Baker and Howland Islands, and from what I read, Baker could be a possible place to finish

As for a new type of route marker: Traffic Light!
In this route marker one team can force another to stop at a traffic light. The team that stops at the Traffic Light has to open one of three clues. Inside each envelope is one of the following.
Red.- Turn over an Hourglass (Yield)
Yellow.- Perform an additional task (Speedbump)
Green.- Go directly to the Pit Stop (Fast Forward)
it can be used both with good or bad intentions with probabilities of backfiring.

I like that idea Daniel

The Roundabout
A Roundabout comes after a Roadblock, in a Roundabout one team may force another team to return to the Roadblock so that the other member of said team completes the task.
