The Production Sublight Speed Record is a record kept by the Gudersnipe Foundation for the fastest sublight speed obtained by a production-model ship. Production model means it must be ready for mass production, not an experimental test spacecraft designed for no other purpose than speed. The record also indicates that the spacecraft must be manned and that the pilot must survive the flight.

The record has typically been held by Gudersnipe designed and built vehicles, though others have taken the record. As of the late Sixth Age, the record belongs to the Star Hammer Series IV.
