overdrive

You know you're in overdrive when you haven't had any sleep in a long time and suddenly your fatigue is taken over by this crazy ass energy that makes you act stupid.

Jewish overdrive

To save gas by putting your car into neutral (or depressing the clutch) and turning off the ignition.

CAUTION: When driving a carbureted car down a long hill in Jewish overdrive, do not let out the clutch with the car in gear, then later turn on the ignition. If you do this, the engine will backfire. The longer you go before turning on the ignition, the more violent the backfire. Unless you're running glasspack mufflers, you can blow off your exhaust system.

Compare to Okie overdrive.
Schlomo Bender tried to save two bucks worth of gas by putting his Jew Canoe into Jewish overdrive as he drove down Pikes Peak. But he burned out his brakes and drove over the cliff instead.

Overdrive

When you go above and beyond the usual limits.
One of my favourite examples is in Final Fantasy X where each character's most powerful abilities can only be done in Overdrive.

Mexican Overdrive

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
