[edit]Rescue Bots cartoon
[edit]On its first test run, the solar car went out of control, barreling through Griffin Rock and Chief Burns's team joined the chase. Heatwave used his ladder to jump the car over some cars and Boulder and Graham tried to use spikes on the tires, to no avail. The car headed up Old Canyon Road, but Chase caught up with it and managed to stop it before it plunged off a broken bridge. Doc Greene announced that the test run was a success, apart from the bits that went wrong. Hotshots
Doc Greene evidently continued tinkering with the solar car and got the bugs out. Unfortunately he didn't count on Doctor Morocco planting a canister of nanites in the car, and while he and Frankie were driving in it, Morocco took control of the vehicle. The Rescue Bots managed to corner the car, draping a tarpaulin over the solar panel and removing the battery so the Greenes could get out, however the nanites took over and the car roared off again. It was about to flatten Mayor Luskey when the car itself was flattened by the MorBot. The Other Doctor Greene later found the nanite canister, though it was insufficient evidence to point to Morocco. The Reign of Morocco
Doc Greene evidently either rebuilt the solar car or built a new one. He used it to drive to a clock tower dedication. Time After Time He set it up with remote control so he could use it to demonstrate his latest invention, the Directional Momentum Amplifier. Hot Rod Bot
Notes
[edit]- The solar car is a DeLorean with an added spoiler and tubing, inspired by the DeLorean time machine from Back to the Future. It's not the first depiction of a DeLorean in Transformers fiction, however.
