> Special Relativity can be summed up in the sentence: “We live in a spacetime which is an M4 manifold with a hyperbolic Lorentz metric of signature (+−−−)”. General Relativity can be stated accordingly: “The Universe is an M4 manifold with a Riemannian metric of signature (+−−−)” which is a solution of the Einstein equation:Rμν−12Rgμν+Λgμν=χTμν.

It sounds like you get anti-gravity for free along the way to getting superluminal travel.

No because no "run away" effect. "inverted" mass means that the mass goes on the other side... gravity works the same there.
