Racing vs. race

I just moved this to "race" because I thought the term should be more concise, and I think the title "racing" was just copied from Wikipedia's article title. However, while revising the article, I realized that Wikipedia's idea was probably that "race" refers to an instance of the activity while "racing" refers to the activity as a general concept or as an action of an individual. I think the two are synonymous enough that it doesn't matter which is the title though. Sol Pacificus(Cyfiero) 15:00, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

There is also the issue that while "race" as a word is ambiguous, "racing" is not. I myself thought it was about race as the categorization some people use, not about the competition. - Soranin (talk) 22:42, May 30, 2020 (UTC)
