Well here is the first attempt from me. This one likely won't be submitted as it is rather boring...plus I still have about 100 others to choose from that I haven't even looked at yet.

Splashed through some fresh slimey mud before a corner today. I upset the balance just before hitting the mud slick, and had a wonderful drift across it (about 20 feet) while letting the DSC take control of the brakes... it felt sooooo good!
Not good enough to bounce my first idea.

saakey: your entry is in the contest gallery.
A few points to re-iterate (these are in the contest rules if you follow the link in the first post) since there have been some issues with some of the entries this month. If there is an issue with your entry you have already received a PM from me.

- One entry per member per month
- The photo must be MINI related
- Each submission must retain an appearance that it was captured on camera.

I think it's the doctored photos that cause the issue.
Here's one from Jan. that I never posted
I'm tired of fretting over my photo. I know what happens when I keep messing with something, so I gotta let go...:impatient
Good luck to all (and if you don't need it, send some my way
).
