| '''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 to be Polyhex, as no other smelting pools were established in the Marvel comics.</ref>. Fasttrack seemed caught off-balance by the attack, and was among the first to flee the scene once the retreat was sounded. {{storylink|Ring of Hate!}}
| |
| | |
| {{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. {{storylink|Crisis! The Day of the Downfall of Humanity}}

| |
| :''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.
