Yes, shaving makes you faster. In my opinion it is absolutely incontrovertible. And, no, you don't have to be Chewbacca or Robin Williams for it to make a difference.
Except I have never been faster when I've shaved. As a matter of fact the fastest I've ever been for a 100 was with a full thick beard. While I'd admit that it might take a few hundredths of a second off, there's no way that it can take seconds off of a hundred.
