I need to visit Shanghai sometime soon, this looks awesome. I'll try and get in contact with you if I do.

With 25million residents, many of those owning cars, believe when I say the dept of transport has a great financial support and deliver quite well in that respect.
The inter-provincial roads/freeways being by far the best and coolest (not a single 1" wide crack in those). They use a sort of high abrasive asphalt -mix- with concrete. Those are the ones that my Boxster sees the most frequently really (monthly!).
^ We also have the ring in SH! Can't see clearly but there are 3 levels on that ring. This is the first time my little Porsche have seen human vomiting.... I was ramping down at over 150kmph (the guy who barf'ed in my car is not my friend anymore). I normally (rarely) never exceed legal speed limits... talking karma huh |
