If you are an advanced track driver like Rob the square setup makes the car easier to rotate without having to resort to stiff rear anti-rollbars, and the car feels more balanced overall.

The staggered setup builds in a certain amount of understeer which makes it a little easier to drive, but the downside is if you do want the rear to rotate it can be harder to make the back end come around without resorting to aggressive driving tactics.
