Not a good idea if someone doesn't notice you are missing for 24
hours. Not an issue at contests but it could be for solo flying.

After landing, you can log on and erase all your existing tracks.

Dreadfully sorry:
Should have specified to use the link to your newly created 24-hour
shared page if you want to see 24 hours, and use the other one if you
want to see more.
For example, the SPOT shared page the SSA site has for me will show 1
week of tracking.
Alternatively, get an Amateur Radio License/Licence and use APRS.
The person viewing the track can then decide which tracking website to
use and the time window to view, including weeks, months or years ago.
Warning: Those archived flights may be logged on two days if the
flight went past 0000Z.
