Default Another Special Relativity Anomaly Question

Is this correct?

As an object's speed approaches the speed of light, the following occur:

The object's mass increases (Assuming an object with intrinsic mass)

The distance it travels contracts (From the point of view of the observer in the relative time frame)

Time slows down (For the object relative to the observers time)


Do I have this basically right?

Am I missing something important?
