I haven't touched this for a while, but my recollection is that they use the same format, but they way they use the format is a bit different. This may not be clear/intuitive, but I think that you can take a savegame file (not a savestate) from NeoPop or RACE! and use it on the Linkmasta to write to a cart.
If you're testing this on a flash cart (like the Flash Masta), I'd recommend backing up the entire cart first.
If you're testing this on an official game cart, I'd recommend backing up the savegame (or entire cart) first.
Please report back your findings, but I designed this feature to work the way I stated it. I'd be surprised if it didn't.
I can't say that I recall testing going the other way (from Linkmasta to NeoPop/RACE).
By the way, I had a bit of a hand in helping design some of the savegame functionality in NeoPop, and then I used that as a basis to design it in RACE!.
