I try to get this working.

I install carmageddon and then the first patch. carmav
Also do a new install and the new patch. voodo2c.
Or i do install the first and then the new patch over.

With all versions the games starts, but crashes after choosing race position.

oh, i forgot to say: it only crashes on newer dosbox versions: (after 2013 with nglide or dgvoodoo), on command prompt from xp (with dgvoodoo 1.50), and on real hardware with voodoo2.

when i install from same cd and use the same patches it runs in dosbox Versions till early 2013, and on real hardware with voodoo 1.

Voodo2c.exe needs the first patch (carv24rm.zip IIRC, with carmav.exe) installed. It stated in the patch readme.txt.
You may install the 1st patch manually or the game may be prepatches (Max Pack).
The game works ok on a real Voodoo2 (see this post) but it was the uncensored version (US?). I don't have the DE version (Robots?) so I can't test it.

IIRC the last Daum DOSBox version I tried with dosglide games was 25 Jan 2014. Next versions were too bugged.

P.S. have tested the last Daum version (25th Jan 2015). The game works ok with nGlide 1.04. This version is still a *censored* because of a constant rendering artefacts in text modes...
P.S.S. Try to use voodo2c.exe with -vrush and -robots command line switches.
