Correct, the GOG version does not come with the BTH expansion. I talked to someone here about it, they've since changed the information on the game page, so there shouldn't be any confusion now.
Thanks for posting this. But I'm having no luck, even after following the advice to the letter. For me the patcher's options aren't usable, aside from the delete option. Is there some way I can do this manually? I can see where the files need to go. But they don't show up in the game just by dropping them into the relevant bits of the installation directory.

Did you set the CD Patcher 2 to Windows 95 compatibility? Because without that, only the delete option worked for me.

There is no manual method that I know of, since the patcher literally patches a certain "voitures/circuits" database to the let the game know there is new content installed.

It doesn't seem to matter what settings I use. I tried just with 95 compatibility and with 98/ME. I also tried run as admin and a couple of the disabling options. Nothing seems to get it to actually install anything for me.
That's strange. You've got no luck : I've never got this strange behaviour from my previous installment.
What's your OS and where is installed POD ?

This is rather normal in my experience. The OEM tracks were meant to be played with the OEM version of the game, the one on GOG is version 2.0 so they aren't exactly compatible. The downloads are only provided as more of a curiosity :)
Hey, I just found at Community Stickies Compendium 2.0 that there is a community-powered GOG Wiki.

Maybe the extra content from this thread could be added to the POD Gold page at the wiki
Anyone try the car Stock yet? It's weird, it has a guy saying something in French everytime you crash into something.
I could not get the CD Patcher file to run on my Windows 7 Ultimate 64x PC. I have P.O.D. Gold installed in the exact file stated in the tutorial as well as the Patcher in with the game and the P.O.D. Install Config and the Patcher still doesn't notice that I have P.O.D. installed.

Run the CD Patcher with Windows 95 compatibility mode.
It work perfectly following the guide (even with a Language Pack installed).
