Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Traffic Racer at none against Torque Burnout's shown. Traffic Racer also leads on review sentiment (76% vs 57%). Torque Burnout's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
