'''Road Rage''' (ロードレイジ ''Rōdo Reiji'') is the bodyguard/advisor of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] ambassador [[Crosscut (Autobot)|Crosscut]]. She is well-versed in alien cultures and generally cheerful, making her a very good diplomat. However, a chronic short-out in her vehicle mode causes her to live up to her name; in car mode, she is a snarling, swerving speed machine with little regard—if not utter contempt—for anyone else on the road with her. This is pretty embarrassing for her once she reverts to robot mode.<br />

Near the dawn of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]], Road Rage sat in a bar, listening intently to a bot who claimed he was the lone survivor of the recent siege against the [[Cybertron Elite Guard|Elite Guard]]. She appeared to be interested in him until it was revealed to her that the bot was just some lying schmuck named [[Side Burn (G1)|Side Burn]], and not the hero named [[Dion]]. As Side Burn was dragged away by [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]], she and [[Red waitress Transformer|her waitress]] shot furious looks at the impostor. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}}<br />

: Road Rage is a [[redeco]] of [[Tracks (G1)#Toys|the original Tracks toy]], transforming into a Corvette Stingray sports car. She also has a third [[Transportation mode|"flight" mode]] with swing-out wings and add-on thruster-pack/missile launchers. (her rifle can mount on her undercarriage in this mode, but it's really awkward when she's grounded.) As a Japanese release, her spring-loaded missile launchers are fully-functional.<br />
<br />
: She was available only as an [[e-HOBBY]] [[exclusive]], sold in a set with Crosscut. Pre-orders ended on [[July 31]] of 2002, and the toys were sent out in October.<br />

==Notes==<br />
* Road Rage and Crosscut are notable for being the first additions to the Generation 1-era cast of characters after the original line ended since the short-lived ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' series. This also started the general trend toward e-Hobby releases being new characters rather than old characters in new colors.<br />
<br />
* Her coloration is based on the original pre-''Transformers'' ''[[Diaclone]]'' version of the sculpt. This sculpt in these colors was also available as Tracks under the ''Transformers'' brand in some European markets in 1985, distributed by [[Milton Bradley]].<ref name="maz">[http://www.tf-1.com/articles/eurous_frame.php?art=mb "Milton Bradley and the Transformers Red Tracks" at TF-1.com]</ref> A convincing theory suggests that red Tracks, like most of the second [[wave]] of MB-branded Transformers, was actually originally a ''Diaclone'' toy by European Takara licensee [[Joustra]], which was acquired by MB together with the rest of Joustra's ''Diaclone'' stock and put into ''Transformers'' packaging.<ref name="mbjoustra">[http://20thcenturytoycollector.com/mb-transformers-part-4/ "MB Transformers: Part 4"] at 20th Century Toy Collector.</ref><br />
