WGTR is more nimble in the corners, F1 is more stable in the straights. The wider you make the front end of a WGT-R up to the 200mm limit, the less likely it is to traction roll. With an F1 you're limited to a max of 190 all the way around, so you have to try other methods if you start to grip roll. Extra weight on the rear up to a point will give better side bite when the track has lower traction, like our old carpet.
