Speed: No Limits was a steel roller coaster at Oakwood Theme Park in Pembrokeshire, Wales. It was manufactured by Gerstlauer and was the first Euro-Fighter model to be installed in the United Kingdom. The ride was installed by Ride Entertainment Group. It opened on 13 April 2006, and operated until 3 November 2024. It has since been relocated to Walygator Sud-Ouest in Agen, France.
Its lift hill was 35 metres (115 ft), and it featured top speeds of 95 km/h (59 mph). The ride had two inversions, and exerted a maximum of 4.5 Gs on riders.
It featured a vertical chain lift hill and a 97° first drop. This drop gave it a five-way tie for the record of steepest roller coaster drop between itself, Rage, Fahrenheit, SpongeBob SquarePants Rock Bottom Plunge, Vild-Svinet and Typhoon, until Steel Hawg took the record in 2008.
