There would likely be a reduced registration cost if you win your way into a Tier 2 event; as for why a team would choose to compete in Tier 1 events to win their way into a Tier 2 event, they a) would have more driving experience, and b) based on the regional, there would perhaps only be about 30 available slots for any team to apply to a Tier 2 event without winning, the rest would have to be kept aside for point winners of Tier 1 events.
