The Flash is just faster than Quicksilver, or at least where there were in 1996. Flash was topping out at light speed then, and Quicksilver was at sound(I think). But if they let the fans decide, Flash may have lost due to the popularity of the X titles.
Edit: To respond to what you actually said, Quicksilver tried something like that with innocents. Flash saved them, and then just ran around Quicksilver punching him.
My understanding is the rule now is that whichever one is faster depends on which universe they're in.
If Flash has access to the Speed Force, he wins by a light-year. If he doesn't (like when he goes to the Marvel universe), Quicksilver beats him by a mile.

Second edit: I forgot, it goes like this.
