You never said where the race was until I asked, as you never had the location in your first post.SHow me where Superman went lightspeed on Earth as I have a comic where he has to restrict his speed as the sonic boom from going to fast would destroy a city which he said in his own words.

Northstar can go 99% the speed of light has never been able to do as it would surely kill him on Earth.

Yep, but that;s out of character
Yeah, it would be a multiple-way-tie since many of the competitors could not go all out without destroying the environment. Or themselves, as the case may be.
Oh, and for the record...diabloman is retarded, we have established this many times, and there is no reason to poke fun at him for his disability. He isn't DUMB...he is just...slower! No need to be mean, Mungi, he is still human after all!

That's why I mentioned the Galactic race as it allowed people who can't travel in space to be able to race in space creating a atmosphere for them to breath in.
In the context of the thread, Gladiator would probably win. Surfer and Superman care too much about their actions to go all out but Gladiator will gladly hit lightspeed and destroy the planet because he doesn't care. But it doesn't answer the question of who flies the fastest.
I don't know how fast Phoenix regularly flies but according to GS' birdhumping essays it seems like "she'd" be beyond speed.

2nd series, post crisis
This is what he says:
"As soon as he hearf the subsonic squel he would focus, instanteouly calculating longitude, latitude, range..and then he would fly. He told me once that it took him years to acclimate to this sort of speed. In the vaccum of space, it;s all fun. But on Earth, he has to calculate subtle pressures dyanmics, air flow, inertia. He almost always slows when flying over populated areas to eliminate the sonic boom.."

Not true, as the quote I just posted it's risky for people going to fast. Here is Northstar's bio
