Master Drifter's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. APEX Racer sells 17 one-off in-app purchases and Master Drifter sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
