Answer 1

Wing Chung Kung Fu.  Its the king of hand speed as far as martial arts are concerned.  The fastest hand speed martial arts, from top to bottom;

1)  Wing Chung Kung Fu.

2)  Tae Kwan Do.  Yeah, you heard me, Tae Kwan Do.  Despite the limited use of the hands, learning to throw the more muscular, and arguably more cumbersone legs with speed and precision, leads to greater hand speed.  If you can control your leg muscles, then your punching muscles are not a problem.  In fact, getting close to a TKD artist is a very bad idea; people think they are limited to kicks when in fact their hands can be lightning fast.

3)  Of course, Western Boxing done old school, thing is a speed style of boxing favors middle weights more than any other category.  Even the little guys fighting other little guys need to compensate for physical handicaps by using a power style, thus, from a physics and mechanical point of view, the middle weights are the only people who can take advantage of boxing's speed.  The fastest punchers have always been, and will always be, middle weights, for physics, leverage reasons.

Those are the top 3 martial arts to pick up if you want killer hand speed.  Wing Chung, though extremely limited, will give you hands so lightning fast if you train hard enough, you don't even need anything else.  A wing chung flurry has shut down many people who thought they were in for an easy victim just because they practiced Kung Fu, and that it was "fake" "like in the movies."  The style has long been well respected for its effectiveness in China, and more because of law enforcement that has practiced it and applied it, it has gained respect in the west as well.

You want hand speed, wing chung man, all the way.

hope that helps.
