I believe the answer is:

police car

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'transport' is the definition.
(police car is a kind of transport)

'after cilop race back moving in pc' is the wordplay.
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'back' suggests the final letters (the letter at the back).
'moving in' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pc' becomes 'car' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
The final letter of 'race' is 'e'.
'cilop'+'e'='cilope'
'cilope' with letters rearranged gives 'police'.
'police'+'car' is 'POLICE CAR'.

(Another definition for police car that I've seen is " Panda possibly".)
