Simply put Quicksilver is simply NOT a match for ANY Flash.
It doesn't matter if QS can lift 1K pounds or not, the winner is still going to be (a) Flash.
Even without running, the Flash can punch/strike/etc at exceedingly high velocities, and (if you took physics) you know that:
Force=Mass X Acceleration.
Thus, you can increase the force applied by either:
1) Increasing the mass while keeping the rate of acceleration constant.
2) Keeping the mass constant while increasing the rate of acceleration.
3) Both.
Also note that the faster an object goes the more mass it 'accumulates.'
Thus a punch from the Flash would be both increasing mass as well as having a very high rate of acceleration.
Anyways, what do you think a human fist, accelerating towards light speed, would be in terms of force application?
And not just force ....that force will be applied over the area of a human fist. Thus a very small surface area.
Note also that the Flash's fist will be protected by the SF, thus he can punch as hard as he wants.
Conclusion: The Flash will not even need to punch anywhere close to his top speed. That would be sheer overkill.
Against a soft human (yeah, I know QS is a mutant, but his body sure is human when it comes to resilience )body ....nice and soft and squishy .....the Flash will take QS out.
The question you should be asking is if Flash (any Flash, from Jay to Impulse .....and actually even add ANY of the other Speed Force speedsters, thus Max Mercury to Jesse Quick) can give Quicksilver a speedforce punch without killing QS.
Golem, the name QuickSilver shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as ANY of the DC SpeedForce users (be they Flashes or other). The differences are too large.
The Flash will just stand there, watching QS start to attack,and then with a flick of a finger (quick accelerating toward sub light speed) he shall flick QS into a coma. Oh....the finger need not even touch QS.
Flash 10/10.

lol, i agree with your flash vs quicksilver results, no way QS touches him
but
if said fist is accelerating toward the speed of light, if you want to get into physics, it will generate a mass so enormous that flash, since he doesnt have super str as far as i know, would be pulled to the earth by its weight long before it could reach QS. (not to mention that whole e=mc^2 which, unless im compleatly off base on this one, matter going that speed becomes less like matter and more like energy the closer it gets to lightspeed, or that any small particulate of dust or what have you would compleatly blow his hand apart in a colision at that speed)
If you are talking about him throwing a punch with the force to actually effect its mass signifigantly enough, you then bring in outside forces like gravity and whatever that i dont think the flash's power set would really account for
obviously, he could throw punches that are faster than QS without having to effect the mass of his body in any signifigant way, but ya
rant off

Good points.
And I agree with most to all of it.
However the Flash is a walking plot point. Any detrimental effects of hyper-velocity are explained away by the Speed Force protecting him eg from heat and friction, particle collusion and attrition, and anything else that would make a carbon body travelling at anything above Mach 1.5 spontaneously exploding in flame. There is a reason the SR-71 was made o a monocoque of the, then, exotic metal titanium, because normal alluminum and steel would have melted at its speeds of Mach 3 .....a carbon based, read human, body would degrade extremely quickly at mach speed, and to be honest wouldn't even survive speeds around 300mph without protection (reason for this being difficulty in breathing ....try sticking your head out of a car moving at 70mph and even then it will be difficult to breath .....actually on second thought that would be dumb ....unless getting one's head torn off is ones idea of fun LOL).
Anyways, in real physics there are very many things the Flash couldn't be able to do .....however the speed force explains all of them.

lol, no compleatly
this is why im not interested in arguing physics vs comics
i was just sayin' 😛

I usually suck at physics but that actually makes sense.
The faster you go the more your mass is added onto that object
mASS = 4
Your speed (let's say 1000 miles per hour)
The end result is 4000 times the original mass of your fist ramming straight into Pietro...ouch.

It's probably not smart to try and use real world phsyics here because even if Flash, or whoever has light speed "reflexes," were to strike somebody using them they would succed in doing 2 things. ! the person being struck would likely bust open like a smashed pumpkin and 2 the person striking would probably lose their arm and most of their torso in the same manner. There is no way, logically speaking, that Flash is simply human if he can perform such feats. He'd need to have bones and muscle made of something that is resistant to any shock and could recover instantaneously. At least Quicksilver's physiology can somwhat prove his actual abilities. So, please don't use real world logic to back up the argument you are using.
