Quests and Bounties for Sparrow Racing can be received from Amanda Holliday in the Tower Hangar.

With the return of Sparrow Racing, all Destiny: Rise of Iron players are invited to complete the "Speed Kills" Exclusive Quest, which may only be obtained during The Dawning.

• Crimson & Sugary Ghost Shell confirmed as a potential reward
• SRL Ornaments can drop from Post Game Rewards. These do not act the same as the Trials & Raid Ornaments - These change the 'Look' of the armour to match certain Racing Gear
• Y1 SRL Racing Sets "Bright" and "Jade Rabbit" have zero light and cannot be infused (except for helms). They are also no longer available as post-game drops. Post-game SRL drops the new "Speeder *Set", which accepts SRL Ornaments. Ornament options are "Bright" or "Jade Rabbit". Through this method, players may collect the Jade Rabbit or Speeder sets.

• As per last SRL, SRL armor sets, including Speeder, Curcuit, Momentum, feature class-agnostic pieces: Legs, Arms, and Chest. Players can transfer those pieces between characters regardless of class.
• Players can obtain an SRL helmet from Amanda Holliday at Rank 3 (1 per character)
• Players can obtain a Treasures of the Dawning from Amanda Holliday at Rank 5 (1 per character, max 3 per account)
• SGA Pick up the SRL bounties on EACH character daily so if/when you switch character to Rank 5 you will be in a good position to go up faster with more bounties
• Finishing position does not affect the rewards screen (First doesn’t yield better than last etc)
