If you're going really fast, there's only limited time for someone to research speed upgrades before you get too far away to ever get caught (cosmic expansion).
But it is slightly more complicated, as cosmic expansion robs you of speed as you hurtle. So there may be an argument to stop and re-accelerate at some point.
