Sublette County Fair

Thinking about racing the Hawk at the fair on Wednesday. My guess is it's a time-trial type of deal. If I do, I'll get video. Just picked up a GoPro Hero 11 Black.

Well, I went and done it. Here is just the race. I have way more footage...but I have run into the limitations of my computer. I will be focusing on updating this sucker soon. I had such a freakin' blast, man!!

Went ahead and updated my computer:


MOBO: Asus B450M-A II mATX Form Factor
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600; 6 Cores/12 Threads
RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200MHz (upgradeable to 128 GB)
SSD: 1TB Kingston NV2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 3500MB/s
PSU: Thermaltake Smart Series SMART 500W


All sourced from Amazon and came to roughly $400. Was able to re-use my Dell Inspiron 530 case with barely noticeable modification and basically built a "sleeper". I brought the computer from 17 years old to about 4 years old. I installed Windows 10 and see that Micro$oft is up to their typical shenanigans with price-point and lumping it with Windows 11. Gates is disgusting.
