Drag Strip

Drag Strip is a Decepticon warrior and member of the Stunticons, a team of Decepticons who transform into racing vehicles and combine to form the giant robot Menasor. Reckless and competitive by nature, Drag Strip transforms into a Formula One-style race car.

Few Decepticons hit the ground running quite like Drag Strip, who tore onto the scene in The Transformers #22 in 1986, courtesy of creators Bob Budiansky and Don Perlin. Emerging during comics' Copper Age, this Marvel villain has proven a persistent presence in the Transformers universe, with a publishing history stretching all the way to 2025 — nearly four decades of mayhem. Drag Strip keeps genuinely dangerous company, sharing pages with the likes of Megatron, Soundwave, and Optimus Prime himself, which tells you everything about the high-stakes world this character inhabits. Whether you're a longtime Transformers devotee or a curious newcomer exploring the Transformers Compendium, Drag Strip is a satisfying piece of classic Decepticon lore worth tracking down.
