Default Post Your Dragstrip: Google Earth Style

You'd have to download Google Earth of course:

http://earth.google.com/

You have to compress the .kmz format into a .zip to attach it here.

To open others, after you uncompress it go File > Open, and browse to the .kmz file.

Anyway, here's BMP in Bradenton, FL:
