I believe the practice of going downhill in neutral is called Mexican overdrive.

You hot up a V8 in a 7, & you've got to use "angle gear" as we used to call it to cool the damn thing down.

Angle gear, as the truckies coming down the mountains reckoned you were closer to becoming an angle when you used it.
