Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Frantic Race at Free against Scorcher's $2.99. Frantic Race also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 63%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Scorcher's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 14 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
