ASPHALT 7 : HEAT

Asphalt by Game loft comes back with "Asphalt 7: Heat" a more graphically intensive game with circuits that look very true to reality. The game is my favorite Street-Racing game available on the app store with over 60 different cars. However, I do warn you that the game is VERY heavy on RAM so I advise you to close all background applications before hitting the circuit. The improved multiplayer feature makes it easier to race with your friends and family. Asphalt 7 is the best Asphalt yet!
