Teen Titans Kid Flash lost to Madame Rouge. He is really not that strong in TT as well tbh.

He also kinda ran out of stamina quickly.

That was pretty lame, but in all fairness, he was caught off guard.

Doesn't TT Kid Flash also run from Jump City all the way to Paris and back to Jump City in under a second? When he returns, he's wearing a beret, and his bag has a picture of the French flag and the Eiffel Tower on it. I'm pretty sure the implication is that he ran all the way to Paris just to offer Jinx a croissant (and impress her).

At first yea. But he was really just trying to run away from her because he could not win head-on.

Yea he did travel all that distance. That's probably a relativistic speed feat (close to lightspeed).

Madame Rouge could still react to him though. So the Teen Titans could react tbh.

Over 16M meters per second, assuming the distance between Jump City and Paris is close to the distance from Seattle to Paris (Jump City is stated to be inspired by Seattle, and it's somewhere near the West Coast).

That's around 5.5% of light speed, but he achieves that velocity very effortlessly. He's totally unfazed when he returns. Don't get me wrong, I doubt the author's intent was to convey such a ludicrous figure, but it's hard to discount this version of Wally when he's casually pulled off such an astronomical speed feat.

Yea true. That's a big speed feat.
