Until Bungie killed it...
I saw a trailer for this and was convince I definitely am coming back to Destiny at some point... Still going to be a while, but I want to race for sure.

No, the PB killed it by complaining about drowning in SB and SASynths.
Bungie gave us what we wanted

It's ok. Would rather have interesting content involving the spaceships. Bungie vehicle controls are stupid anyway. They're going to have to step it up if they want to keep me hooked all the way to Destiny 2.

I actually don't think us staying hooked is their primary goal anymore. Sure it is welcome, but I don't think they want to keep us playing at all cost. Players leaving is perfectly fine. I think most of them come back if destiny 2 makes the same leap TTK did compared to the original.
Addition of custom games for crucible could be a very very good move right now imho. Seems like a small addition to me, but I am no game developer. And it will keep allot of players playing and screwing around.
I for one, still have plenty to do. Still don't have any exotic sword, ToM, or any of the "daily exotics" for example. And I think there are plenty of players who are in the same boat.

Bungie employees have played WipeOut I see. Shame to see those futuristic racers die off. I'd have thought the new consoles would increase their demand.

I miss F-Zero GX and even Star Wars Racer. Those were really fun games.

Yes? I still dunno how I feel about Sparrow Racing; I never was a racing game player. I might try it... But I'm not particularly itching to

I suck at sparrow racing. I also suck at Mario Kart. I'm having the best luck with an upgraded ride. Wear the SRL gear, and use side boost as much as possible. There is a lot of luck involved as well. Grab them bounties every day and get the drops.

Drops do get better as you continue to rank up. I hit rank 3 today and am seeing 310+ items now. Liberal use of side boosts and knowing when/where to use them is key. A full gear set with racing perks is highly beneficial. Arms, chests, and legs are locked into a specific perk so it doesn't matter which specific piece you get, but there are two perks that can roll on helmets. One that allows you to pitch your sparrow up or down in air is definitely the one to use.

You have to pitch your sparrow up to make that jump clean when using that helmet. I usually do a backflip there and make it just fine now, but it was pretty annoying for a couple races before we figured that out.

Bungie thinks it's OP if I get a shader, obviously.

SRL is definitely where it's at if you want to get your light level up. After hitting Rank 3 I've gotten multiple helmets and class items that are 315+. I've gotten enough of them that I can infuse up some exotic helmets for my main and donate other stuff for infusion to my alts. All characters are over 310 now. My alts probably went up 5 or so light, and that's without even switching my good guns over. And then there's also the added bonus of exotic engram drops if you use those Three of Coins.

I got Azure a while ago and a 310 helmet so my Warlock's LBN is now 310. Tempted to skip or only do one Oryx CM run next week to make time for SRL. Plus, there's a lot of shit drivers out there.

Who is this person and why is he mad at me? Did it give him a bad helmet or something?

You should respond, "A sparrow's just a seat and an engine, to win, ya gotta ride with heart."
