Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: NASCAR MOBILE at 4.7 against IMSA's 4.1. NASCAR MOBILE also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 29%) and ratings volume (196K vs 70). IMSA's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
