Lemme break it down real slow like for you - She comes within 50 ft of him and she gets pinned to the ground because of all the metal she's wearing and the fact he can manipulate it. And if she attempts to lasso him farther out than that, obviously he's fast enough to react to it and dodge. He can also pause time and control the earth to throw up a barricade if necessary.

He's stated flat out that he can't go from zero to mach 8 instantly, especially when turning, etc. Why would he be able to reach light speed instantly? And reacting and thinking at light speed are two different things. He's said he thinks at the speed of sound at least twice.Also, the Zoom/Flash fight you were mentioning where he had Jay and Bart's speed - they were going 2000 miles per second. Not anywhere close to light speed.
i never said he could go from 0 to light speed instantly.
2000 miles per second? i'll need to re-check that issue, unless you happen to have the scan...

Hm. It says 1000 miles with every punch. Maybe I'm thinking of the Bart/Zoom fight. Not positive. I'll sort through it tomorrow night.
Oh. A small correct on my part. When Wally was amped with Jay & Bart's speed he actually could go from zero to light speed instantly. However, without it (in issue 207), he mentions going about mach 8 instantly and him being lucky to break the sound barrier while turning and whatnot.

then how does he have all those other feats that contradict the sound barrier being his reflex limit?
iirc, its actually contradicted in that arc (assuming you're right), when clark is chasing him... even if they are going at 2000 mps (which is the bare minimum, and isnt the actual speed imo), they are running through cities, that in itself requires turning and dodging and so on...

The 2000 mps feat was when Supes was chasing him, not during the Zoom fight. My bad:
And one of the instances (there are several) where he says he thinks at the speed of sound:
