HOMESTEAD, Fla. –  James Buescher started in the middle of the pack, barely cracked the top 10 and never even sniffed the lead. He caught a huge break when his Turner Motorsports teammate made contact with his closest competition, Ty Dillon. No doubt, Buescher felt fortunate to end up celebrating a championship in Victory Lane. "It wasn't pretty," Buescher said. "It was a little messy, but we did it. ... This is definitely the coolest thing I've ever done in racing." Buescher avoided trouble and finished 13th in the season finale Friday night, enough to win NASCAR's Truck Series championship by six points. Cale Gale won the 200-mile race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, edging Kyle Busch at the line as both trucks sparked after hard contact. The more significant celebration, though, was saved for Buescher. It was his first title in four full-time seasons. "It was close.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
