He's already faster then the light speed dash and light speed attack anyway. Do you know how fast light is? If Sonic really was that fast then we'd be unable to see him. Gameplay wise, Sonic can't reach half the speed of sound. Plot wise, Sonic is able to break the sound barrier at top speed. Sonic repairing space and time had nothing to do with light speed travel. Also, just because the words "light" are in the title, doesn't mean Sonic's speed dash and light speed attack are light speed. You also don't have to look very hard to see the Sonic often moves slower during those attacks. Knuckles has Meteor Mash and yet I see no meteors.

Sonic isn't faster than light. Plain and simple. He is MUCH faster than sound plotwise, as the manual for Sonic Adventure states that he'sa hypersonic hedgehog, meaning his top speed is over 3000 mph.
