Hmm.. Sounds like a data problem - make sure you are using revision 1236 of the svn (yell if you need a hand). Also try trashing the settings (~/Library/Application Support/VDrift). If that doesn't help, it maybe I build it wrong - if it exists could you post the contents log.txt from the setting folder. I am a little bit confused why your crash log contains my username.
EDIT: OK, just doing some testing, and it's something wrong on my side - I haven't figured out what yet.
EDIT2: I'm guessing it was after
https://github.com/VDrift/vdrift/commit/304cbed It seems to find some form of data folder, so start launching, then disable shaders but not be able to find the no shader file:
