'To be standing here as a NASCAR champion is something I would say I dreamed of, but I didn't ever think it was a possibility, so I didn't ever really dream of it,' said Bell from victory lane. 'I'm just really speechless.' Toyota also captured the NCWTS manufacturer's championship at Homestead-Miami Speedway, marking the manufacturer's fifth-consecutive title and the 10th in 14 seasons competing with the Tundra. Tundra drivers won 12-of-23 races in 2017, leading 2,041 laps – both more than 50 percent of the races and laps contested. 'Toyota is fortunate to have a great group of Camry and Tundra drivers, as well as tremendous team partners, that allow us to have success on the race track and win accolades like the Cup and Truck manufacturer's championships,' said Keith Dahl, motorsports general manager for Toyota Motor North America (TMNA). 'To be able to win the Cup title in the first season racing the new 2018 Toyota Camry is truly remarkable and displays the effort TRD and Calty Design put into preparing this championship-winning Camry.'
