If warp 13 is in fact a transwarp factor, then using Mr. Kennedy's formula:

13^4*13^1/3=28561*2.351=67156c....44 times as fast as warp 9 (1516c).

I remember in the book Probe, The probe itself pulled the Enterprise at speeds around warp 30. They said that they made it to the other side of the galaxy.

The books don't count. Warp 10 was supposed to be the limit.

Not really, but some type of proto-simian. Smarter than the crew still though.

This is the Voyager crew, chimps would be a step up.

However it was evolution and not devolution (apparently becoming Lizards has alot of advanatges over our current form).

Regarding going beyond warp 10, in the episode "Where No Man Has Gone Before" Geordi says "Captain, we're passing warp 10!"

Later, "What is our velocity?" says Picard
"It's off the scale" says Data.

I thought they turned into amphibians, not lizards?

Honestly, who cares?

Why did Paris and Janeway evolve into Salamanders?
Because the writers have absolutely NO IDEA how evolution works... considering that they identified what they called a "pattern" that was "consistent" with "human evolution"...

Remember that "All Good Things" involved Q. I've always considered the whole future thing to be somekind of alternate makebelief reality Q created, rather then the actual future. So the 'warp 13' and the (stupid fan-boysh) three nacelled GCS aren't really real.

NOMAD got the E-nil to go warp 13 or 14 or so. The Andromedans also beefed up the warp drive, but all that was TOS warp scale, not TNG warp scale.

Ahh, the good old days of TOS. :)
