I read a great description recently that echos my own sense of what constitutes "racing room". See for yourself if you agree:

This is a good description!

The bottom line for me is that we are CLUB racing, primarily as a hobby. There should be no tolerance for club drivers that want to bang around for a position. The key is awareness! Both drivers need to allow the other adequate room, both at the apex and at track out. While one may technically have the position established, both are responsible for avoiding contact.

It’s a lot more fun to be out with a group of equally matched cars that are constantly overtaking each other than to parade around. We usually know who we can trust to allow this sort of racing and the key is a matter of etiquette, not simply “do I have the right to close the door”!

OK, it’s different at the runoffs or possibly the ARRC, but never IMHO at a regional event. If one wants to rub for 20th go WC racing.
