Superluminal relativity in 1+3 spacetime

We develop an extension of special relativity to account for superluminal inertial observers in 1+3 dimensional spacetime. It turns out that even for superluminal observers the speed of light is preserved and no obvious logical inconsistencies arise. The price to be paid is the unusual physics within superluminal frames as well as the fact that classical physics has to be abandoned and quantum field theory becomes a necessity within such frameworks. We also argue that superluminal particles may not only be a mathematical possibility, but they could actually exist within the known components of the Standard Model.
