I am guessing you did not see the difference in competition between the 2 sites being greater than .5ptbb/100?
It is close to being .5ptbb/100, but I am heavily invested in Iron Man. If I stay at $100 on FT, I plan to get back to playing a fair amount on Stars. But:

I am in my 24th month of Iron Man, so I am getting medals up the wazoo; I should be able to make an extra $600/6 months by buying the bonuses at 3000 medals each.

This is absolutely correct, although it takes me right at an hour. Still, that leaves me plenty of time in the day to play Stars, if I choose to do so.
So I am not sure at this point what I am going to do. I think my favorite plan is to split my time between the sites and try and grind my roll on stars up to 3k, and, if that works, take a shot at $200 on stars.
We'll just have to see. September will be the key, because if I beat $100 for a decent wr in a decent sample, then I am going to go head and move up to $200, since I am already rolled for $400, and I think I can beat $200 from what I have seen in SSFR.
