Drag Strip is a crazed, reckless speed freak. So of course someone gave him a weapon that controls one of the fundamental forces of the universe. His gravito-gun boosts the power of gravity itself — any unfortunate caught within its range will be torn to pieces, or crushed like a beer can on a fratboy's forehead.
Fiction
Marvel The Transformers comics
In robot mode, Drag Strip used a gravito-gun that enhanced the gravitational field of a localized area, causing those caught within the field to be crushed or torn apart. Drag Strip's Universe profile
Dreamwave Generation One continuity
As a robot, Drag Strip was armed with a gravito-gun that enhanced or reduced the effects of gravity on a target, either causing them to float away, remain immobile, or tear themselves apart. Drag Strip's More than Meets the Eye profile
Toys
The Transformers
- Drag Strip (Stunticon, 1986/1987/1990)

- Drag Strip came with a small purple gun, identified as a gravito gun in his instructions and hyphenated as a gravito-gun in his packaging bio.
- Drag Strip was also available as part of a Menasor giftset and in 1990 he was offered as a mail-away by Weetabix breakfast cereal in the UK alongside the Aerialbot Fireflight, and reissued as part of the European/Australian Classics line.
Generation 2
- Drag Strip (Stunticon)
- Accessories: weapons, connector
- Drag Strip was to have been redecoed for the Generation 2 line along with his weapons, as they are generically labelled in his instructions, though his packaging bio noted that he has a "gravity enhancing weapon to slow down enemies".
 Proceed on your way to oblivion. |

- TakaraTomy release date: July 30, 2022
- Accessories: 2x Gravito-blasters [1]
- Part of the first wave of Legacy Deluxe Class toys, "Decepticon Dragstrip" is a mostly cartoon-accurate version of the character, except for the shoulder pylons that are formed from the the car's front air dam. He transforms into a close approximation of his Tyrrell P34 Six-Wheeler race car mode in 17 steps. His accessories include two blasters, which can mount to his race car mode.
- Rather than having a dedicated limb mode for combining into Menasor, Dragstrip's car mode splits apart to form part of Menasor's arm (presumably via partsforming).[2] Dragstrip will not be compatible with the Combiner Wars system of combination.
