Playing all my high school football games on astroturf, I can tell you that playing on the turf does not increase top speed over wearing cleats in nice grass. However, you CAN cut and accelerate noticeably quicker on astroturf. Planting, changing direction, etc, are all so much easier on turf rather than grass.

What is the difference between astro boots and normal football boots?
Astro boots, are used for playing on astro turfs and hard grass because they give you better grip than, in muddy grass. Normal football boots are generally metal studs which is used for muddy wet grass because they did into the ground and supply you with much better grip than astros would. But you can get football boots with molded plastic studs which can be used for astro turf as well as grass but I don't like using my moulds of astro because it makes you higher off the ground and means it is harder to kick the ball because of the studs :)
