Lancia Delta Integrale on the Eiger Nordwand track.

That was most unfair. I was gagging for a cup of tea and a slice of cake...

Hey Mike, I popped a few recommendations for that US girl hoping to do some UE, problem is not sure what their trespass laws are, probably change from state to state............she really needs to have a look at the american UE forums

Cool. I saw the question there and thought of you!

Yeah. The castle and tunnels is worth a visit to be fair.

That's really cool. Although the scale doesn't go high enough for me

Am I being thick though, what does /p/ mean?

I wondered the same thing. I think I'm at the gear stage

I know someone who's in the HDR Hole however

Victor .. Awesome shots, I especially like the 2nd one you posted with the gas mask!

I managed to get into the 1:24s on the Eiger with the Lancia. Can do better though.

Sleepy time now!

Anyone tried to shoot Mars? Been told it's supposedly visible tonight near the moon but I see bugger all apart from an exceptionally bright moon.

Someone did mention earlier, about 8 o'clock, on Twitter that they could see it, perhaps it's time has passed, or your in too bright an area.

Steady on there Victor. Be careful before you post stuff like this. All of a sudden I feel the urge to replicate some of the graffiti in that picture and employ the very dangerous "both hands holding the handrail" stance.

What a bunch of muppets

Bllimey, that means you aren't far from the Daeth Phase

I think this graph needs redoing. Mike!

Yep, 48 next week so death can't be too far away

I agree that Mike needs to redo this for us. There are 2 distinct stages missing imho. One is getting your first L. This causes a temporary upwards blip in the "Dammit I suck" phase which is worringly followed by a downward slide to below the base line when you realise "I have £1000's in gear and I still suck". This phase is recovered back to zero when you buy a filter kit. Then you die

Can't seem to see the "pixel-peeping" and "is my lens sharp?" phases either.
