Or maybe that he's really just figured out a way for the flux capacitor to interface with the warp fields so that he can shave a few microseconds per mile off of his transit time...all though, for values of v1=d/t, he could theoreticlly be faster then a fold drive...kinda. Just get where you wanna go, and then drop back to right before you left. Cross galaxies in negative amounts of time! Hell, if you could do it, you wouldn't even need an FTL drive. (tho it'd get *really* boring...) Specially since (IIRC) he's detian, so immortalish...
