Kyle Busch Eliminated Despite Second-Place Finish

He lost eight points to Martin Truex Jr. on stage points alone. That was just enough to eliminate the younger Busch from a spot in the Championship Four. Sometimes it is the little points that make big ones. As the No. 18 driver said, "it was just not meant to be this year".
