I'd like to use an electric car.
If you go play "Pikes Peak" you'll notice that the engine noise is a bit repetitive after a while.. It doesn't sound bad, no, I like it, but the gears change so fast it's constantly reving up and down. After a while to me this gets annoying. I like the sound of a good gas powered engine, but not the one featured in Pikes Peak with the very fast gears.

The mountain in the game looks BEAUTIFUL, and the sound of the engine really takes away from that I think. To just hear the wind and gravel would be nice.

Oh, well that's easy! Although then you wouldn't get the monotonous whine of an electric engine.... I still think it would be a nice option to have!

Engine noise aside, I'd be cool to have some EVs in, like Monster Tajima's E-Runner.

Why not? Pikes Peak also got an Electric class.

Maybe put a vote up in the Suggestion Box, OP.

Why would you think that? I'm fine with some engine noise, but the one on Pikes Peak is just... annoying./ quickly repetitive.

When I played the Demo for Dirt 2, I bought it for $15. I think the electric engine in the game would add something new, and the accelleration would be much different, different handling all that. It would really add something new to the game.

Well, I don't have $25. I had it earlier in the year, but that money went to a computing device so that said computing device would use around 35 watts (most hardware GPU / fans etc included) instead of 70+ watts at idle.
With that said, I can not post in the "Suggestions Box", so if anyone would like to do that for me, I'd greatly appriciate it.
