Those hex messages don't mean anything to me.

Let me consult my crystal ball....

Hmm, yes...I see something now..."Beelzebub.exe" isn't that Carm-Life 2 not C2?

Third rage group...let me guess, you clicked on Philips Island track?

Commie Block runs fine on my copy of Carma Life 2. You sure you got the addon track installed right?

Yep, made it replace the rural track for group 3(forgot the name),but,it comes up with a different error for each race,commie block ends with 82,timber ends with 81,and home sweet groan ends with 80.

Plus I checked the races.txt file,it looks fine.

Yeash, I don't know. If it's all 3 races in the group then it sounds like a problem with the RACES.TXT

Did the races in group 3 work before you started adding tracks?

Are you using Mapstockalypse to add tracks? If yes, I'd rename my RACES.TXT and then take a copy of RACES.OLD and rename it to RACES.TXT to go back to a previous version.

Well, you could backup your CARS folder and OPPONENT.TXT assuming those aren't in fact the problem. (which I doubt)

This is my last response on this.

Reinstall Carma Life 2 Carma 2 whatever the heck it is you're having a problem with.

DO NOT put any addons - does it work?

THEN put addons - maybe just ONE for a test. - does it work?

Fixing problems like these is process of elimination and common sense.

I guess something wrong with your game and/or windows installation. Reinstall windows (do clean install - save most required documents and files to clean flash drive and wipe hd), reinstall any program and/or driver from cd's and redownload other files.

If it would be still wrong it may be hardware problem.

p.s. try other glide wrapper if one doesn't work.

Edit: If it's addon problem try to install one than test it. It may be broken car, map or anything. Don't install all them at once. Use mapstock to install a track and carstock to install map. If addon you installed crashes game uninstall it and check where the problem may be.

Edit x2: Check if your pc memory is not faulty (use memtest86 or similar tool). Check if there are no file system errors; check for bad sectors too - it may be faulty HD too. If it is get a new one.
