There were so many storylines associated with Martin Truex Jr. and Furniture Row Racing winning the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series championship it was easy to forget the dominance the No. Despite qualifying for the championship four finale last season and all the ups and downs of a 36-race season, the team and its family never lost faith. “You know, some things are just meant to be, I guess,” Truex said. Truex also won three poles and led 2,253 laps, while boasting an average finish of 9.4 during 36 races. Truex joined Furniture Row Racing in 2014 and Pearn became crew chief in 2015. Truex joined Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Bobby Labonte and Brad Keselowski as the fifth driver to earn Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series championships.
