Wix Racing Oil Filters

What is the difference between Wix's racing oil filters and their regular filters??? I could not get a straight answer out of them except that the racing filters are for racing.

I have always used Fram Racing HP4 filters in my GTA, but I want to try Wix filters now. Wix shows filter #51060R as a cross reference to the HP4. The lady from Wix didnt seem to knowledgeable since she explained that their racing filters are designed to be run once down the track and then changed. Will I have any problems running a Wix racing filter on my GTA 1,000 miles each summer???
