Artist's Comments

Edit: so went and changed him... quite a bit actually. Added more purple to his body (Thanks woxy and stuki) and yes he dose transform... theoretically :D I have gone and painstakingly matched each part of the vehicle with his bot mode. Plopped his alt mode in too.



Bio:

Drag Strip, like all the Stunticon's is a rather complicated character. His reputation among the Decepticon ranks is that of a psychotic, arrogant braggart, driven by unrealistic aspirations of absolute perfection. To those who know him closely however, and are willing to dig a little deeper it's revealed that his pathological attitude of superiority conceals actual feelings of deep set inferiority and failure. These insecurities/self loathing, force him to prove himself in even the most menial of tasks, rising to any challenge with a savage determination.
For any who have had the privilege of viewing the Stunticon gestalt dynamic (and that's a very very rare few) it's easy to pin point the root cause of Drag Strip's superiority complex... Motormaster. The barbaric brutal semi takes great pleasure in manipulating and goading his gestalt-mate's insecurities and his relation with Drag Strip is certainly no exception. The racer's defiant nature, his delusions of grander and his possessive protectiveness towards his other three gestalt-mates often brings him into direct confrontation with his brutal leader who reserves no hesitation in belittling and humiliating Drag Strip in the most cruel and sadistic ways possible.

Weapons/Abilities
Drag Strip has above-average strength and intelligence. He is a first-rate racer and determined warrior. His vehicle mode is extremely agile and capable of speeds up to 270 mph. The infamous stunticon forcefields protect him from most light to heavy weaponry. Forms the right arm of Menasor.

He looks georgeous but.. purple face and yellow body? Isn't that strange?

BEHOLD!
:iconballisticcow:
totally! :nod:

I was kind of torn between as to whether or not to give him his G1 colours (yellow and purple) or to give him a totally different colour scheme. I originally wanted him to be black and purple but that was too like motormaster's so then I went for black and dark green, but eventually I was persuade to keep his original colours instead.

:shrug: I don't know... might do a speed painting with his alternate colours.
