One of the greatest comebacks in recent NASCAR memory, for sure!
Martin Truex Jr. probably had the most dominant championship season since Jeff Gordon's 1998 Championship.
That's audible "YESSSS!!!" when he crossed the finish line at Homestead first makes me tear up every time.
2018 season: What Joe Gibbs giveth, Joe Gibbs taketh away.
The last driver to win the championship based on being the best ALL YEAR
What made this season from Truex all the more incredible was the amount of heartbreak and tragedy going on around Truex and the team. Truex's girlfriend was fighting cancer I'm pretty sure. There was that one fabricator who passed away. And then there was Barney Vissar, the team owner, who had a heart attack and couldn't even be at Homestead as a result. In spite of heartbreak and tragedy, Truex persevered.
That phrase is forever ingraved in my brain
i honestly cannot think of any points system where Truex doesn't win this championship at least one race early, except for the one that was actually used. Truex in 2017 was probably the most deserved champion in the Chase/Playoff era, simply because he always seemed to have a full race cushion on the field, and he never once needed to fall back on it
The only deserving champion of this crappy playoff format.
Truex is the only driver since 2003 to be the best all year and win the championship

As a Truex fan (one of my favorite drivers), I've always rooted for Truex since the NAPA days in the 56! Furniture Row was also one of my favorite teams since the Regan Smith days in the 78. This was truly an amazing season for Truex and FRR! They've dealt with Triumph and Tragedy and a near-Tragedy (Barney Visser suffered a heart attack), No matter what happened in 2017, they never gave up! This was truly an underdog moment since Alan Kulwicki's 1992 season. If you ask me, the 78 and its black car is and will always be iconic (my opinion). Furniture Row Racing will always be remembered for how they started from the bottom, winning the 2011 Bojangles Southern 500 at Darlington, Kurt Busch in the 78, and the underdog duo of Martin Truex, Jr and Furniture Row Racing! I am not sure if there will be another team like FRR, but who knows! Damn, I miss Furniture Row Racing so much!
ONE OF THE GREATESTEST STORIES IN NASCAR FROM THE FALL OF DEI & MWR TO A CHAMPION

Take a shot in this video if they say
Saw this dude win at Martinsville, only the best to him 🍻
Furniture Row will always hold a special place in my heart. Being from Colorado, I was ecstatic to have a hometown NASCAR team! That 2017 season gave Denver more then just the Broncos (who getting their asses kicked by the Bengals the same day somehow justified front page of the sports paper, forcing Truex and FRR to the second page)
This was one of the best all around seasons I've ever seen, nothing could've taken this title away from MTJ and Furniture Row
Good Seasons: Jeremy Mayfield 2004
My grandmother was a Jeff Gordon fan all her life, but since Gordon retired in 2015, she now pulls for Truex.
