Extreamly stupid.

I am sure of this ruling. My friend seems to be convinced not.
If we are playing bites, and hes a vampire, after he tries and fails to run away from the vampire hunter. He cannot discard his race card to avoid death after he has already failed to run away?

Too late to discard. He loses.

The moment the die says that he didn't run away, the bad stuff happens. (Exception: He can play cards like Loaded Die, cards that give a retroactive Run Away bonus, etc., of course.) If he wanted to rearrange his character to avoid certain Bad Stuff, he should've done that before running away.

I see that I still have much to learn about Munchkin (so I'm in the right place :D)

I would say, with full certainty, that, even after trying to flee, he could still leave his race and then suffering the bad stuff.

The attempted escape is the last thing you can do in a fight? (already including the reactions by the failure.)

He can discard his Race before he rolls the die to Run Away. Afterward, it's too late -- he suffers whatever Bad Stuff is appropriate to his Race at the time he rolled the die.
