"Light speed" or "speed of light" in Japanese media are just very common figures of speech for "really fast", you know, kind of like how "lightning speed" and "faster than lightning" are to us
Plus the name of a technique is hardly indicative of it's actual capacity

That and "light speed" and "high speed" appear to have the same pronunciation, with different characters. So if someone could get that, but unlikely as its anime only.

Gotcha. I will ask Akira how fast Tien was punching with the move he named light speed punches. I will also ask him what the 'ball of paralyzing light' was made out of that Frieza used to surround Goku or what Piccolo death of light, what type of energy that was made out of. I'm pretty sure these will be hard questions for him to answer. Lets also not forget about the solar flare...I'm pretty sure that is made out of claydo. Thank you all for the help.

Correct. It is anime only. Which is why it will be difficult, maybe impossible, to get the right name seeing as "Rekka kousoku-ken" can either mean;
Kōsoku - 光速 - Light Speed
or
Kōsoku - 高速 - High Speed
Not much at all. From taking the dragonballs and summoning the dragon to Goku's victory, they only traveled around 8 islands away from Frieza's ship only to end up flying back to 4 islands away. And seeing how each island is only 100 or so meters long with an island sized ocean gap between, we're not talking much of a distance throughout the entire event, much less the T-minus 5mins.
