How far are normal barrel racing barrels spaced apart?
Seconds to milliseconds it all depends. The distance between the barrels has to be consistent with the size of the arena where the contest is held. So long as the barrels are spaced 18 feet from the rails, the rest depends on maneuver space for the horse, and stopping distance in the end from #3 barrel. This type of measurement is called "scale" The size of the arena will determine the size of the course. This distance is "unknown" to the rider and makes for a more competitive contest. (it wouldn't be a good contest if the trainers and riders know and train for a set distance!) After they establish the course, using the 18 foot from the rail rule, if the arena is too small, they will adjust the barrels in five yard increments until the rule is met. If the arena is large, then the rule is used, but the barrels will be farther apart. Then during the course of the contest, the best time to win is calculated from the fastest to the slowest for each rider/horse. There are three runs and the best average time wins. (the times from all the runs by a horse are added together, then divided by three, and the total of this is the "average time" )
