Transformers: Generation One

Bio:

(From Dreamwave's More Than Meets The Eye Profile Book)

"Slow-pokes" is how Overdrive describes his competition, both physically and mentally. His impressive speed as a vehicle and impeccable fast thinking as a strategist have given him a superiority complex that's hard to overcome. Being Overdrive's friend means putting up with his constant comparisons, in which Overdrive always paints himself as the superior candidate. Even his more light-hearted comments carry the hint of egotism and thinly veiled contempt for those around him, including his friends. Other Autobots hope he gets his ego complex under control before he totally alienates his allies and realises that he can't succeed without them. As it is, all Overdrive seems to care about is winning as fast as he can.
