I joined one server today (sorry, forgot the name).

Every time I tried to join a race it kept kicking me back to the pits with the message "passengers not allowed".

The thing is, I have passengers switched OFF from the pits menu, but I was still getting this message every time I tried to join a race on that server?

Any idea what is causing this?

You were on CTRA. Change setup and/or Reconnect.

It was a CTRA server, and it's an LFS bug reading some setups as with passengers, when there aren't anyway. This only seems to affect the XFG, the solution is (unfortuantely) to pick another setup.

Ah cheers. I was rather spamming the chat on that server trying to get an answer, so I hope I did not piss anyone off

Perhaps the X-System could allow passengers in the XFG until the LFS bug is fixed. Passengers are only going to slow the car down, so why not let someone have a passenger if they really want?
