2nd race i took 2nd or 3rd though.

kind of enjoyed it actually.

may give it a try w/the hopes of getting a helmet to drop above my current 294.

Yeah Benny, it seems like it would be a blast going in with a full 6-man team and racing. It's a fun diversion from all the typical Destiny killing, but I would still love it if they had a race mode with weapons available, too.

I'm going to be on racing tonight too. Hit me up if you see me. I'll jump in with you guys. Now that I hit rank 3 I don't care about winning anymore. I'm just there for the drops.

you'll get your lcd poster frame when my plane ticket to florida shows up.

You don't want to come to Florida. It's a brisk 82 today. Nobody wants that in the middle of December.

I know you said you can't do tomorrow but do you think your brother is interested in trying again tomorrow night?

I'll take that 82 any day. Sitting at a balmy 17.5 now.

Yeah, but, you guys use that archaic celcius nonsense. So 17.5 is probably like sixty degrees. Light jacket type weather.

That's funny. America has slowly been switching to the Metric System and Celsius since the 70's! We're nearly 10% there now.

Canada uses modern units, so I thought he was fooling around for a minute. Unless they're having a heat wave.

These level 25 packs were already available in TTK purchases, so I don't really know what the news is. Additional telemetry-like boosters were available from Red Bull, largely exploited, but, in spirit, at a price.

Anyhow, if I had some friends buying my version of Destiny for the first time, I would want them to be able to play with me today, not a week from now. And beyond that, all that gets you is level 25. It contributes nothing to your subclass upgrades, which is where all of the time is invested.

I don't know what your PSN is because I don't believe you are on my friends list yet.

I'll send a request now!

Edit: That was fun Trailbreaker. Good racing. I think we had a better chance winning the lotto than randomly playing against one Bungie Twitch feed.

Screenshot I saw says there is a subclass boost

I thought that boost sounded similar to a telemetry that increases the subclass upgrade rate, rather than an immediate influx of XP into the subclass, which then is similar to the Red Bull item. But maybe it's the latter.

It still comes down to time or money.
