    local RaceVehicle = createVehicle (1161.5633544922,-2043.7193603516,69.0078125)            -- create a vehicle. 
    warpPedIntoVehicle ( RacerPed, RaceVehicle )                  -- warp the ped straight into the vehicle

You could at least TRY to read how to use functions before writing down something completely arbitrary... createPed and createVehicle both need at least 4 arguments each (you forgot the skin ID and vehicle ID, skin goes before coords, vehicle ID goes after). Since you provide the wrong kind of input in one and nothing at all in the other, they throw an error (invalid argument) and end up not creating what they're supposed to. Therefore, you get the same error in every function call that tries to use the results.

Open it, read it, use it.

You could at least TRY to read how to use functions before writing down something completely arbitrary... createPed and createVehicle both need at least 4 arguments each (you forgot the skin ID and vehicle ID, respectively, which go after the coordinates in each function). Since those are nil, you get an error there (invalid argument) and since they end up not creating the ped nor the vehicle, you get the same error in every function call that tries to use them.
