Angry that there's only one speed (5)

I believe the answer is:

irate

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'angry that there's only' is the definition.
'irate' can be an answer for 'angry' (irate can mean angry or annoyed). I am not certain of the rest of the definition.

'one speed' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'speed' becomes 'rate' (both can mean pace).
'i'+'rate'='IRATE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for irate that I've seen before include "Annoyed, nettled" , "Ticked off" , "Fuming" , "having got in wax" , "Mad" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
