Dont get carried away. Space time warp is introduces for giant oblects like sun , stars and gallaxy. We dont even weigh ourself in tons. Have you ever thought about that.

If you are asking about how mass increases with speed due to special relativity, the relation is m = m0 * sqrt(1 + (v/c)^2) where c is the speed of light. At 18.5 mi/sec you are traveling at 0.0001*c so your 100 kg mass increases to a whopping 100.0000005 kg !!

not at all because this would involve the forth dimension. it would surely violate the laws of physics
