A contest between two people to see who can move the slowest towards an undesirable task when neither wants to do it. Often individuals participating make exaggerated movements in order to appear like they are making an attempt to complete the task.
John and Sally had a slow race to see who would deal with the angry customer on hold.

There are no winners in a slow race, the person to get to the task first does not win, the are the looser.

When two cars traveling in the same direction but on different side by side lanes, while maintaining equal speed, none of the drivers attempt to pass the other as if to be racing in slow motion.
"I'm running late for work and these two morons are slow-mo racing in front of me and I have no way to pass!"
