Gravito-gun
From Transformers Wiki
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.

Legacy
- Decepticon Dragstrip (Deluxe Class, 2022)
- Part of the first wave of Legacy Deluxe Class toys, "Decepticon Dragstrip" carries two "Gravito-blasters" instead of one, which can mount on his race car mode or combine side-by-side into a dual-barrel blaster. Due to appropriate-sizing, the dual-barrel blaster can be held in Dragstrip's hand without issue.
