That theory is useless. The car "going through the mountain" is taking a straight line approach. Of course it would get there faster. But in space travel, why would you go the long way around? You would fly a straight line to where you are going which would be the shortest distance.
In that analogy, Our 4 dimensional existance is the long way around.A straight line would be the long way around.Its called Non-Euclidian geometry, check it out.
