'''Fasttrack''' is a semi-autonomous armored interceptor under the control of the Decepticon [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]].
 
 
==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics Continuity===
 
Fasttrack was among the Decepticons under Scorponok's command.  They were ambushed while leading captured Autobots on a death-march to Polyhex's smelting pool<ref>Their destination is presumed otbe Polyhex, as no other smelting pools were established in the Marvel comics.</ref>.  Fasttrack seemed caught off-balance balance by the attack, and was among the first to flee the scene once the retreat was sounded.
 
:''('''Note''': The comic's mistake-riddled coloring seems to indicate Fasttrack was the fleeing Decepticon Scorponok called a coward after pointing out they were badly outgunned.  The robot mode shown was [[Blot]]'s, however- a mistake also not uncommon in the Headmasters comic.)''
 
===Masterforce Cartoon===
An army of Fasttracks, led by [[Guardminder]], worked on a floating Decepticon mega-cannon in space, and defended it from [[Autobot]] attackers.
 
 
==Toys==
===Generation 1===
*'''Scorponok with Lord Zarak''' (Headmaster, 1987)
:''Japanese ID number'': '''D-93'''
 
: Available only with the large [[Headmaster]] Decepticon Scorponok, Fasttrack transforms into a six-wheeled assault buggy.  His axles were designed for quick rolling down the main ramp of Scorponok's city mode.
 
: This mold was also used to make Guardminder.
 
==Trivia==
[[Image:Fasttrack model.jpg|thumb|I'll show that Grimlock who 'counts' as a Transformer...]]
* Fasstrack had a character model prepared for "[[The Rebirth]]", the mini-series which ended the US Generation 1 cartoon, but never actually appeared.  He may have been slated to appear before "Rebirth" was cut from five episodes to three.
 
* Answering a [[Letters Page (Marvel UK)|Grim Gram]] in the UK comics, [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]] said he did not consider semi-autonomous units like [[Scamper]] or [[Roller]], to 'count' as Transformers- they were considered components of larger Transformers instead.
