Moonracer (G1)
Moonracer is a female Autobot in Generation One continuity.
Amongst her colleagues, Moonracer is the joy and the laughter. The bubbly little sister, Moonracer is full of naive optimism and, to the dismay of her partners-in-guerilla warfare, pratfalls. She worries that others, either friends or enemies, don't take her seriously, and dismiss her as simply being cute. But she'll show them. She'll show them she too can be hardcore.
According to Powerglide, Moonracer is the best sharpshooter in the galaxy.

Moonracer was part of a team of Female Autobots on Cybertron, long believed to be extinct. While stealing energon from a Decepticon stockpile with her teammates Firestar and Chromia, Moonracer tried to take more than they needed and, in the process, tripped an alarm.
Shockwave learned that the Female Autobots still existed and sent a team of Decepticons to follow them back to their base. Rumble used his piledrivers to cause a cave-in inside the Female Autobots' underground base, trapping them inside. It was Moonracer's idea to detonate the energon they stole in order to blast their way out. They succeeded, but were soon under attack by the Decepticons. The Female Autobots were joined shortly by Autobots from Earth, including Moonracer's boyfriend Powerglide. However, the tide was not turned until the arrival of Optimus Prime and the Female Autobots' leader Elita-One.
With the Decepticons defeated and their underground headquarters destroyed, Alpha Trion relocated the Female Autobots to a new base of operations.
