Hell ya! Love that version of Dragstrip!

Was this a pre-Earth mode we've seen before, or a whole new design by this artist? My memory for WW/WFC/IDW-prehistory stuff is getting rusty.

He may have gotten a bit more toy love than other Stunticons in recent years, but his character is often the most overlooked since he was technically the most sane member of the team, so it's nice to see his unique brand of competitive-freakishness highlighted. Also, as much as I'd love to own everything from this years Botcon, it's a welcome reminder of his typical gender in most continuities. Best Mosaic in a while! (well, it does seem like there just haven't been many lately)

Great artwork and a nice insight into Dragstrip. The colouring really complemented the artwork too.

Nice job.

It was last seen in the Ironhide mini. It was pretty cool.

Drag Strip never had a Cybertronian Mode. He was created on Earth from a Indy car stolen by Rumble. Him and the other Stunticons bodies were flown to Cybertron and given life by Vector Sigma then flown back to Earth. Nice art though...

True in the cartoon cannon, but in IDW's universe dragstrip and the rest of the Stunticons are regular characters created pre war Cybertron. Hence the Blurr reference.
