Does this patch update automatically when I start steam? Tomorrow when I fire up my puter I just want to make sure I don't have to do a manual install. I remember reading on my seam account that it keeps all my games updated.
 
It seems that there is a small issue that some have with patching that once you are patched your game doesn't seem to work anymore if you launch from anything other than Race07. All you have to do is start the game with the Race 07 icon and then close it and your other game icons will work again.

Correct, Steam will automatically update the game the next time it starts, if it hasn't already. The only reason why it wouldn't is if you've specifically instructed it not to keep Race 07 up to date.

I ran into this the first time I tried to start the game - Race ON wouldn't launch, but Race07 would. But after the first successful launch of Race07, all of the icon choices (Race07, GTREvo and RaceON) would work. Really no difference, but I prefer the black menus of RaceON to the other 2.

This issue is not actually caused by the patch. I formatted my PC over the weekend and reinstalled Race 07 + Expansions using a Steam backup. (I haven't patched yet.) The game would not launch GTRE or RO then either, until I launched R07 once.
