Yes there is. Einstein's special relativity explains precisely that.
Einstein's equations don't break down at the speed of light. Especially
since nothing with mass travels at the speed of light. Gravity only
effects masses and the path of light beams, and other things restricted
to follow the path of space-time. Now, Einstein's equations break down
at the quantum level, since they're based on classical physics.

Tachyons are just fiction created by crazed science fiction writers. If
they existed, they'd be in a physics textbook right next to bizaar and
unexplained things like neutrinos.

What does Newtonian physics have to do with atoms? The strong and weak
nuclear force interactions at the atomic label pretty much make the
force of gravity pretty neglible. 
Newtonian physics break down near the speed of light, and relativistic
physics breaks down on the quantum level. Relativity doesn't even
completely break down, but merely becomes too fine for a uncertain
reality. What a strange and wonderful universe...

BTW, frankly, what does this have to do with the following newsgroups:

comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.chips,comp.os.ms-windows.win95.misc,comp.os.ms-windows.win95.setup,comp.multimedia,comp.graphics.animation,alt.games.doom,alt.games.decsent,alt.games.warcraft,comp.graphics,comp.graphics.animation,alt.fan.bill-gates,comp.os.os2.misc,comp.os.os2.advocacy,comp.os.ms-windows.nt.advocacy,comp.object,comp.os.linux.misc,comp.os.linux.networking,comp.security.misc,comp.security.unix,comp.os.ms-windows.advocacy,news.admin.policy,fr.comp.windows.drivers,alt.windows95,soc.culture
