lol, the singer in that Sonic CD video reminds me of the chick from KMFDM.

 

*pushes up nerd glasses and clears his throat*

 

To complicate things further, the speed of sound is not universal. It is different, based on temperature, pressure and other factors. This means that if Rainbow Dash is flying Mach 1 at 5000 feet above sea level, she is actually moving at a different speed than Sonic running at Mach 1 at sea level.

 

See this graph for a basic idea of it.

That's because he doesn't have rainbow hair. Well unless he's the flying seizure known has Hyper Sonic.

... wat.

 

I'm sorry, but I don't see how this is relevant.

 

Indeed, my good sir. It is quite relevant. Having rainbow colored hair makes you go faster. It is known.

To add to my argument.

 

Also

 

So yeah either a very close tie or Sonic.

 

Those two quotes were from the Sonic Wiki by the way

 

ah ha wait just a minute he's not braking the the light spectrum if I saw that right he's running through a lake or pond and he's making the water arc and the sun is going through the water he kicked up.

I'm a huge fan of both, but I believe Sonic could beat Dash. He runs at the speed of sound, and is named: "The fastest thing alive." Plus, the chaos emerald turn him Super Sonic, making him even faster, and having the ability to fly. But it doesn't mean Rainbow will totally lose. She can fly all the time, and has the Sonic Rainboom by her side. I just think Sonic would win by a little bit.

I'am an equal fan of both so it would be really hard for me to decide a winner... I personally would say it would be a tie... but then again Idk for sure lol like I said earlier it'd be cool if someone did a legit crossover race episode. RD & Sonic are Both badass in my book...

Haha nice I had this video mixed with the SATAM intro song "the fastest thing alive" on my profile when I first made my profile! :)

Actually this had made me thinking... I mean Rainbow Dash can fly... Not just fly but fly really freaking fast at that! Sonic in normal state is a force to be reckoned with... But sonic seems to have more limitations than Rainbow Dash... So I believe that Rainbow Dash would most certainly win in (most) cases.

They would be y'know...racing and then...homing missile out of nowhere, Crimson Fury speeds past, Agent Stone flips 'em the bird and wins the race. So it's a tie.


The Baron Vain's only favorite~

AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS PROVES SANIC IS FASTER, BECAUSE HE CAN GO 15 LIGHTSPEDZ PER SANIC

I'm bringing this to a mathematical perspective. Thanks to physicists in both fandoms, we know the average top speed and perks of each competitor to compare.

 

Rainbow Dash has been shown in the show to have a top normal speed average around Mach 5, which is 5 times the speed of sound, or 3,806 mph. This is only reached through diving however, so straight away speeds hover around Mach 3 or 2,283 mph. From a full rest, she has been shown to accelerate to speeds exceeding 2,000 mph within the span of 100 yards.

 

Rainbow Dash has been shown to survive even the highest of G-forces, once pulling a hairpin turn clocking at 1,776 Gs.

 

When Rainbow Dash breaks the 5 mach barrier, she breaks the light spectrum and creates the sonic rainboom, effectively doubling her top speed to Mach 10, or 7,612 mph, or 2.11 miles per second.

 

Sonic the Hedgehog on the other hand, surprisingly stands little chance on normal ground, reaching average top speeds just above Mach 1 for the most part, but when he pushes himself, he has been shown to exceed Mach 3.

 

However, Sonic has a few perks that allow him to stand a chance. He is able to reach light-speed, but only for short bursts and dashes. Sonic also has incredible stamina, allowing him to remain at top sprinting speed for extended periods of time. The last gambit he would have to defeat Rainbow Dash (and probably the only one that would work) would be his Super Sonic form, which for short bursts can exceed light-speed, and average full top-speed is unknown but is speculated to remain somewhere above Mach 15. The only problem is that the form is active for a limited time, and it drains Sonic's stamina.

 

And with all these facts on the table, I put my money on Rainbow Dash. Given that Sonic isn't given an infinite amount of rings and Super Sonic form from the get go, Dashie would easily outfly Sonic, even if he received Super Sonic later on. Not to mention, Sonic also is shown to be vulnerable to abnormally high winds, which is a weather pattern that I could easily see Rainbow placing in Sonic's path.

 

So yeah, Rainbow Dash FTW! :wub:

Exactly my thoughts at the end of the day! After reading through all these posts and thinking... I mean Rainbow Dash can "fly" at unbelievable speeds. Sonic is very fast as well its just that he has alot more limitations than when it comes to rainbow dash.

rainbow dash is definately faster, and rainbow dash could kill sonic because she is stronger. Remember the episode where rainbow dash kicked the dragon. Ya, well, it would be almost impossible to move at least 5 tons of head.

It's really obvious that Dash will win on the forums since this is a pony forum, but I still prefer Sonic as a character.

 

that is true sinse this is a pony forum but in a flat out race it would be dash who would win,but in the character side of things its sonic all the way he was just cocky enough go be loveable lol

Well, I don't have enough knowledge of sonic to say who I think WOULD win. But I do know that I'd be rooting for Rainbow Dash!
