Ok, so I'm new member here, glad to be contributing if i can. This is gonna be using Raikage as the basis. First off, I would like to know where does Naruto portrayal stand?
Raikage himself is portrayed as a lightning bolt in top speed: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/4/47437/3707874-13.png
^Implies Author intents Raikage to be Lightning Fast and thus Minato a Lightning Timer.
Now, I understand everything is not that simple. So, i have another piece of evidence That supports Raikage being Lightning fast if it wasn't accepted. Kage Summit Sasuke should be above Itachi during his final battle before he died where he reacted to Kirin and even if you don't agree with that, there is no way you can say Itachi in this moment: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/10/105334/3078815-428715-naruto_manga_391_2.png Is above Kage Summit Sasuke (He's Low on Chakra, Near Death, Near Blind and Injured).
Now, I don't know what the accepted speed of Kirin is here, but I do know Raikage is faster than Kirin. Here is why, going with Sasuke being superior or at least equal to that Itachi who reacted to Kirin, When Raikage went full speed, Sasuke couldn't even track his speed as shown and Stated: http://z.mfcdn.net/store/manga/8/49-463.0/compressed/dnaruto_463_sleepyfans.15.jpg (Read Karins statement).
So in actuality, it'll be something like: Raikage's Speed > KS Sasuke's Perception >= IP Itachi's Perception > Kirin's speed.
I not sure if this is the place to present calcs. But just to give a good estiment Storm clouds form at 200-4000 meters. In the fight Zetsu stated attributed Kirin to reacking the ground in 1/1000th of a second. That'll make Kirin's speed at it's lowest possible Mach 583+ and Raikage's speed Mach 612+ by saying he's 1.05x faster which is barely an increase. 1/4th of a 2x boost infact and we have people like Madara who can react and physically block Raikage from give or take a foot away and inbound:

Madara would at least have had to move his hand 2 feet bringing it up and across his torso. Going any further put's his Combat Speed and by extension Reaction Speed in the high triple digit mach or maybe even quad mach. This would scale to people everyone on or near Base Madara's level.
Thoughts and is there anything we can do with this?
