I forget the name, but in the original series warp works like this.

Warp Formula Speed
1 1x1x1 1
2 2x2x2 8
3 3x3x3 27
4 4x4x4 64
5 5x5x5 125
6 6x6x6 216

NextGen I though it was doing the multiplication 6 times instead of 3. I prefer the Babylon-5 jumpspace speed myself though, in that the creator of the show said "the ships go at the speed of the plot"
