correct version is 2.6jrc4 or 2.7jrc3
There is a bug in the race wizard. This is a copy of an email I sent to a player in an earlier game:
Hi,
Unfortunately, your race file is corrupt. You may or may not know the possible cause but it's usually because:
1. Incorrect version. Your Stars version should be 2.6jrc4 (or 2.7jrc3). If your version is something else then you can download 2.6jrc4 at http://starsautohost.org/files/stars26jrc4.zip. Note that there is no operational difference between 2.6jrc4 & 2.7jrc3 - 2.6 has no audio which I don't think anybody cares about anyway; I use 2.6 myself. Stars will ask you reenter your serial number after you upgrade.
2. There is a bug in the race wizard whereby, after you create your race, you then change it's name (I think it happens when the name is different to the original name by more than 1 letter). If that's the reason then you will be unable to load your race file in your own copy of Stars so it's a good idea to reload the race file after you've saved your final version to ensure it's OK.

It's a good idea to jot down your race design just in case you have to recreate it.
