For one thing, an alien´s "g" would be necessarilly different than other´s. If they were fragile critters from low gravity worlds, they would take longer to reach any given speed, for they could only withstand their own little g. In other words 1) take care when putting two alien species in the same spaceship; 2) Don´t mess with a high-gravity civilization: they can get here faster than you can get there.
