Putting a car into neutral going down a long hill because your top gear is not high enough to prevent over-revving or because your injectors do not shut off under deceleration
The racers in the Carrera Panamerica in Mexico discovered their cars would go faster rolling down the long mountain grades in Mexican Overdrive than in gear.

When a driver shifts a vehicle into neutral while going downhill, to make the vehicle go faster than if it were in gear.
