Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Minecart Chase at none against Car Simulator 2's shown. Minecart Chase also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Car Simulator 2's advantage is ratings volume (25K vs 1.2K) and chart position (#155 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
