Before you post another thing about FTL Travel Read this: In 2370, following the fgormation of a massive subspace rift in the Hekaras Corridor, the Federation Council agreed that the use of warp fields posed a significant threat to some areas of space. Therefore, the Council decreed that some areas weould be limited to essential travel only. In addition, The Council imposed a Federation-wide "speed limit" of W.F. 5, which could be exeeded in times of extreme emergency.
BUT: Later advances in Warp technology made it permissable to travel at speeds faster than W.F. 5. One of the first ships to be equipped with the technology was the U.S.S Voyager, whose variable-geometry warp drive nacelles prevented damage to the subspace continuum.
So, as you can see, the 'Speed Limit' became void in that way, and it no longer mattered how fast you went.
