Basic Trope: An object colored red will appear to move more quickly than normal.

  • Straight: Bob's racecar is red. It regularly outruns other racecars that are not also red.
  • Exaggerated: Even though every other car in the race is red, Bob's racecar is candy apple red, so he still wins.
  • Downplayed: ???
  • Justified: The red paintjob is new. Bob's racecar was always the fastest.
  • Inverted: Bob's car is red, and the slowest.
  • Subverted: Bob's red racecar is the slowest car on the track.
  • Double Subverted: But the other red cars are the fastest.
  • Parodied: Bob's racecar is not only red, but is covered with flame decals and leaves flame trails and a visible Redshift where it drives.
  • Zig Zagged: The red paint's speed-enhancing powers randomly turn on and off at the start of each race.
  • Averted: Bob's racecar is the fastest one on the track. It's also green.
  • Enforced: ???
  • Lampshaded: "That red car looks like it goes the fastest."
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: Bob's red racecar consistently breaks down.
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
