"Speed Star" is the 17th domestic single by the Japanese hip-hop group Lead, released on July 28, 2010, a year after their previous single "GiraGira Romantic". The single peaked at number 11 on the Oricon Singles Chart, and remained on the charts for three weeks.
The single was released as a standard CD and four CD+DVD combo packs, with each CD+DVD version corresponding to a member of the group. The member versions contained the bonus track "Hikari", which was performed as a solo by whichever member's edition was purchased. A new rendition of their 2006 song "Virgin Blue" was included on all versions, along with the track "Speechless".
