Fiction
Generation 1 Cartoon
Trans-Europe Express Augue Cahnay was lured into entering the inagural run of the Europa 2000 by a million dollar grand prise. In reality, the race was arranged by Megatron to get Auggie's car to Istanbul.
Augie resents learning Autobots will be entering the race with him, unaware they're entering to protect him. (To be fair, Auggie would probably resent it if he did know too, he's nothing if not consistent.)
When he's attacked by the Stunticons, who steal his car, Auggie joins with the Autobot Bluestreak to retrieve it, letting Bluestreak win the race. Auggie fights off the Constructicon Scrapper with a blowtorch, and makes off with his car, leaving the Autobots in trouble.
Much to everyone's surprise, Auggie returns, driving his car off a cliff into Menasor's face, wrecking his car in the proscess. Disgusted to learn the race was a fake, Auggie nonetheless donates the treasure the Decepticons were after to the charity Bluestreak was racing for. But don't think that means Auggie is a nice guy, he's not.
He just doesn't lose to anyone, not even the Decepticons.

Auggie's Cars
Symultech Car
Augie's high-tech racer used for his cross-europe race was designed b the leading-edge technology company Symultech. The engine was made of a new energy-resistant alloy Symultech invented, which Megatron wants in order to contain the Pearl of Bahoudin.
Formula 1 Racer
Auggie spent so much time in his Formula 1 racer, he bragged the car was almost part of him. After his death, the car was put on display in an automotive museum along with some of his winning gear.
Skid-Z thought it was a shame such a nice car was going to waste as a display piece, and scanned it to use as his Earth vehicle.
Auggie's Formula-1 racer had a gold Autobot symbol on it for some reason.
