Matter is accelerated to beyond the speed of light all the time. Problem is, it happens on the event horizon of a black hole and we have utterly no idea what it does next.
If we could figure out how to generate gravity (gravity is cool, it breaks all kinds of laws that govern the other forces/energies) we could then set it up so that g-forces are counteracted and a ship might be pulled through space by a black hole continuously generated "X" distance in front of it.

Yes, E=MC2 is true, on a macro level. On the quantum level, it's all higgeldy-piggeldy.
