Of course you are…

use search function, lots of info about cpu occupancy over the years

Is this with Content manager or the vanilla launcher? Not knowing which track you're running I'd suggest trying another track with the same number of opponents and see if you ge the same result. A bit more detail on what you're running would help too.

Impossible to answer without knowing:

1) your hardware (CPU and steering wheel)
2) what track/car combination you are using
3) Based on your posting history.. how many hundreds hacks and mods you have installed

The error is very simple, it says your CPU is not able to calculate the physics for all those cars... the reason why your CPU isn't able to do it can only be understood once you answer the 3 questions above.

When I had this problem I went searching for answers on google, tried everything, nothing seemed to work. Then one day I was using an app for camber monitoring on the suspension. The app showed an alarm much to my surprise. It said CPU occupancy 99% turn ffb down. Confused I tried it and problem was fixed. I still don't understand why. So my suggestion to you is turn the ffb down and see if it helps.

Union Island currently has issues with high CPU usage. I think Ben is working hard on an update.

Some steering wheel drivers don't like to be fed a FF signal with a frequency that is too high... when they do they lock the program until they have processed the entire signal queue.
On AC/ACC the FF signal is sent by the physics thread, so if the wheel driver locks the execution it'll lock the physics thread and thus it'll trigger the CPU occupancy message.
That's why the setting to reduce the FF frequency was introduced.
