I should have been a little clearer,

Each element now has two attributes highway=raceway and highway=primary, a 
single way should only have one highway attribute.

The tagging guidelines 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Draceway 
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=raceway> seem to imply its an 
either/or thing. I’m searching for a tag other than “highway=raceway” to apply 
to the relation, like a bus route for example.
