Travel fast in a car (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

motor

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

This might be a double definition.

'travel fast' is the first definition.
'motor' can be an answer for 'travel' (motoring is a kind of travelling). I am unsure of the 'fast' bit.

'car' is the second definition.
(motor can informally mean a car)

'in a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for motor that I've seen before include "Engine of vehicle" , "Car; powered machine" , "Move quickly" , "Driver" , "Wheels" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
