you need to remove the Console.WriteLine("Too fast"); from your static void Main and only there.

You are calling a method CheckSpeed, because this is a void method it doesnt return a value. It does however return your writeline statement if the if statement is true. So the assignment text might be a bit confusing when it states : CheckSpeed will not return a value for this challenge.

so this code is the right one for the assignment -

using System;

class Program
{

    static void CheckSpeed(double speed)
    {
        if (speed > 55)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("too fast");
        }
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // This won't print anything.
        CheckSpeed(53);
        // This should print "too fast".
        CheckSpeed(88);
    }

}
