Wrong. To travel back in time, you'd just have to cover a distance in less time than light (in a vacuum) takes to cover the same distance.
Best way we've got of doing that at the moment is to figure out how to fall through a wormhole (they probably exist) without turning into spaghetti.

As for travelling forward in time...we're already doing that at a rate of one second per second. If you want to go faster than that, hop on the concorde. You'll pick up a very small fraction of a second on the rest of the world by the time you hit London.
