Sawyer, aka Racer of the Oracion Seis is shown to be very fast in melee combat
and seems to almost teleport.

However, later his power is explained to be

> Slowing Magic: a time-affecting Magic, changing the way its targets perceive
> time, and thus making it appear for them that Sawyer is moving around at

How does he then travel great distances in short amount of time, the most
prominent example being,

> Brain ordering him to retrieve a casket which contains Jellal's body.

How does he travel such great distances?

There's no evidence that might suggest he travels at amazing speed. As you
said he just tricks people, that's his power. However, it is also mentioned he
always wanted to be the fastest and trained for that purpose so it would make
sense for him to be fast. We know he's asked to retrieve Jellal but we don't
know if he's super fast doing it. The dude might just be the fastest one in
Oration Six so that's why he's asked.

To answer your example, Racer demonstrated the magic to conjure up
motorcycles. It's very possible that he rode on a motorbike the whole way, and
simply left it when he arrived.

Besides, maybe his natural speed is already fast. Mages in the FT universe
have been proven to have above-average physical abilities.
