Its one long haul from Moncton New Brunswick to Pomona California.

I am just wondering a couple of things > The playoffs could be anywhere? and why is it that every major sport has a playoff to decide the champions? And just maybe Racer who does not chase points or travel a lot or may not have the budget could stand the chance of being the Champion? Just how much money does it take to win the championship every year is a question also ? Just maybe a major sponsor could be found to sponsor the playoff race . Also just maybe a racer would not have to travel as much to get into the playoff just stay in his own division?
