Red things just seem to go faster. In fiction, make something vermilion and you can almost guarantee it'll move quicker, as if the color itself reduces drag, lowers inertia and increases forward momentum. A visual shorthand for getting the point across that an object is zippy. Truth in Television: Red apparently promotes adrenaline release and feelings of excitement or intensity, which can certainly give the appearance that a red object is moving faster, as well as possibly encourage the drivers of red vehicles to push the envelope more. Also, the Doppler Effect makes things red-shifted if they're moving away from you at a high speed (read: significant fraction of the speed of light). Don't expect there to be any evolutionary basis for this, however, as it's unlikely any human would ever get to see it with the naked eye. Additionally, red in fiction tends to be associated with elements/powers that go well with energy and thus speed, like fire and lightning. Not at all related to Red Herring or Red Shirt. Hot Paint Job (basically "things with flames painted on them go faster") may be considered a sister trope, as red and fire are of course associated. Sub-Trope of Law of Chromatic Superiority and Color-Coded for Your Convenience. Compare Gold-Colored Superiority for another color that is considered greater than others (sometimes even red). |

The main antagonists Pokémon: Genesect and the Legend Awakened are a group of Genesect. Their leader, a Shiny Genesect (who is red-coloured), knows Extreme Speed. Exaggerated when this same Genesect was made available in the games through a downloadable event for those who saw the movie in Japan; along with knowing the aforementioned Extreme Speed, it has a Hasty nature* boosts Speed, reduces Defense, knows Shift Gear* raises Speed by two stages alongside Attack by one stage, and holds a Choice Scarf* boosts Speed by 50% at the cost of locking it into only using the first move it uses. | |

Super Mario Galaxy 2 has two temporary examples: the Dash Pepper turns Yoshi red and gives him enough speed to run up walls and on water, and the Rainbow Star increases Mario or Luigi's speed and turns them red as opposed to the flashing multicolored version from the first game though still leaves multicolored duplicates to emphasize their speed. | |

Sonic The Hedgehog. Inverted between Sonic and Knuckles. While Knuckles is colored red, and he is quite fast, he pales in comparison to other characters like Sonic and Tails. However Sonic's trademark choice of red footwear is very much this trope played straight. Played mostly straight with the springs in the early 16-bit games in the series. The yellow-colored springs provide a slight speed and height boost when bounced upon, and the red ones make Sonic jump much higher and move much faster. Knuckles Chaotix added blue springs in certain stages, which were even more powerful than the red ones. Sonic Heroes: Amy wears a red dress and boots and is the "speed" character of Team Rose. |

In Lyrical Nanoha, speed-based fighter Fate Testarossa-Harlaown typically wears Barrier Jackets with red belts crisscrossed all over it, while her adopted son and fellow speedster Erio Mondial primarily wears red for his Barrier Jackets and has red hair. And most importly, her beautiful, sad eyes are red. The redheaded Nove is faster than her sister Subaru because her Jet Edge is lighter than Subaru's Mach Caliber. Deed, who has red eyes and red magic color, is also one of the fastest Numbers. Chantez Arpinion has red Knight Clothing and her skill is translated either as "Super-Speed", "Agile Speed", "Dreadful Speed" or etc. Vita, the red Knight of the Iron Hammer, subverts this. She's not particularly slow, but is a Mighty Glacier. |

Red Hare, Lü Bu's horse from Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Said to be as quick as any rabbit and famed for being a horse among horses during the era of the Three Kingdoms, it is described in the novel as "uniform ashen red, with not a hair of another colour" and "capable of travelling 1,000 li (approximately 500 km) in a day". In the Dynasty Warriors series of games, it is also the fastest horse that one could get. | |

While there are earlier examples, the Gundam series not only become enamored with this trope, but also act as a Trope Codifier in Japan. In the original Gundam, the only way one could tell apart Char Aznable, the Red Comet's mobile suit, from any other was because it was painted red and was three times faster than other suitsnote Char liked to slap larger engines onto his suits, and his fighting style also took full advantage of a mobile suit's legs by using them to "jump" off enemy battleships while attacking them point-black for an extra speed boost. Some adaptations also imply that his Newtype biology had higher tolerance for high G acceleration than normal people, allowing him to fight effectively while redlining the engines. For the movie trilogy version the speed increase was retconned to only one third faster, as triple the speed of a standard Zaku is an insane performance boost that was one of the anime's holdovers from the Super Robot genre. (which would otherwise be identical in appearance). This, coupled with Char's magnetic personality and sheer popularity, has managed to immortalize red suits as belonging to Rivals in other Gundam series. See Law of Chromatic Superiority and Char Clone for further details. Mobile Suit Gundam 00 revisits this concept with the Trans-Am mode, which turns the suit red and three times faster. |

Link's Loftwing in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is said to be the fastest in all of Skyloft. It's known as the Crimson Loftwing. Before, in Ocarina of Time, Epona is the fastest horse on Lon Lon Ranch. How can you tell? Because she's red. Her Breath of the Wild incarnation has some of the best stats of all the potential mounts, though only if you use amiibo. And before even then, in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, your Boomerang can be upgraded so that it flies farther and faster. Not only does it turn red, it trails sparkles behind it. |

Storyboards of a deleted episode of Plasmo has Brucho painting the rocket car he and Plasmo are using bright red. Plasmo thinks Brucho did it in honor of himself, though Brucho points out it's only because "the red ones are faster". | |

Wonder Woman: Diana wears a red bustier and red boots. She possesses the speed of Hermes and is faster than all of the Amazons save Donna Troy and Cassie Sandsmark who also wear red and have super speednote Although Donna retains her super speed, she has since switched to black. Diana has even been stated to be faster than Hermes and has bested him in a foot race at least once. Wonder Woman (1987): The Messner-Loebs run introduced Mayfly, an assassin with super speed comparable to the Flash. She too wore red. |

Warhammer 40,000 is the Trope Namer: Ork vehicles go faster when they're red because Orks think they do. (Technically Orks are a little bit psychic, but don't know it, and the mass belief causes a small alteration in the engine's reality. One assumes if enough colour-blind orks formed an army, then GREEN ones would go faster...) This is reflected in-game; for a small extra deployment cost, you can give any Ork model with a red paintjob a bonus to its move radius. Orks believe really, really good. In previous editions this was the only upgrade that actually mandated you to use a specific color (It's no longer a requirement by a strict reading of the rules, but if you can successfully convince someone that your not-red car is really red, it would be a feat worthy of an Ork). The Blood Angels Space Marines are noted for wearing red armor. Their vehicles are able to be outfitted with extra strong engines that give them additional movement distances each turn. They are also able to field a specific jump pack equipped unit that receives extra movement compared to other Space Marine jump pack troops. Saim-Hann, the Eldar craftworld that makes most use of jetbikes and fast skimmers, also uses red as their primary colour. Khorne Berserkers, in most editions, are usually capable of legging it faster than any other infantry out of sheer murder-rage. Averted by Tau commander Farsight's custom red battlesuit, which is not in fact three times faster than a regular one (it's considerably better in combat, though). |

Subverted in TRON: Legacy - during the Light Cycle game, Sam Flynn ends up on the blue team, and one of his allies mentions their opponents' cycles are faster.

Pac-Man has Blinky, the red ghost. While he's no faster than the other ghosts at first, after a certain amount of dots have been eaten, he speeds up to be faster than the other ghosts. After a few more, he speeds up even more to the point where he's faster than Pac-Man himself. Considering that he's also programmed to be The Determinator, this generally makes the final stretch of each level much more difficult as it takes much more effort to shake him off your tail. | |

The yellow-colored springs provide a slight speed and height boost when bounced upon, and the red ones make Sonic jump much higher and move much faster.
