Double Clutch is an Autobot Go-Bot from the Generation 2 portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

An Autobot defense specialist, Double Clutch is said to be the very definition of the word "speed", as well as a highly versatile robot. His rear spoiler functions both as a shield capable of deflecting laser fire and as an energy absorption panel that can keep him powered even after his internal fuel supply has been exhausted. The aerodynamic nose of his vehicle mode radiates electron disruptors that shut down the tracking sensors of his enemies. Catch him if you can, Decepticons!
