<p>Truex Jr. finished second in the AAA Texas 500 at Texas Motor Speedway Sunday afternoon.</p>
<h2>Analysis:</h2>
<p>The championship standings leader was the heavy odds favorite Sunday at Texas, but he came up just short of the victory. Truex led a race high 107 laps, but his Toyota wasn't as good on the long green flag runs as Kevin Harvick's Ford. Harvick would pass Truex with 9 laps to go, and the Furniture Row Racing star would hang on for the strong runner-up finish. It was his 17th Top-5 finish of the season.</p>
