Out of interest when DO you rename a race? At the beginning of the process?

Never, if possible.

You name them once then never touch it again if at all possible.

1) Before sending a race file to the host, open it to check wether it is corrupted or not. If it's ok send it without any changes.

2) In my experience the race file gets corrupted when editing/changing the race name after you have saved it the first time... and the new name is shorter or longer by more than 1 letter.

3) It is possible to rename the race afterwards. Here the workaround: You can change upto as many letters as in the old name rightaway. Additional letters you need to add/subtract by 1 letter (you can change one letter for the singular and plural name at the same time). Save it. Close. Reopen. Add/subtract the next letter. And so on.
When finished, go back to 1)
