Sterling Marlin won the race off of pit road but 10 cars stayed out including Stephen Leicht and Leicht would lead the field to the restart on lap 125. On lap 129, the 15th caution would fly which would be the biggest crash on the day taking out 5 cars on the frontstretch. It started when Ron Young got turned by a car and spun down the infield grass. Sterling Marlin got bumped from behind and spun up to the outside wall and Brian Keselowski also got bumped and spun to the infield grass with Young. Carl Edwards attempted to navigate through the carnage but did not see Marlin stopped up high until the last second and ended up getting bumped from behind by Matt Carter in the process and ended up turning Edwards into Marlin and all three stopped up high. In comparison to the last two years of the race in 2005 and 2006, there were 15 cautions in both of those races. The 2005 race cautions happened in 254 laps while the 2006 race happened in 252 laps of the race, but this race had 15 in only 129 laps ran. The race was red flagged for a short bit for the wreck. The race would get back going again on lap 141. On lap 146, the track record for cautions was broken when the 16th flew when Kelly Bires spun in turn 2. Stephen Leicht pitted during the caution and handed the lead to rookie Marcos Ambrose and Ambrose led the field to the restart on lap 151. Eventually, the race would remain green for at least 10 laps for the first time since the race restarted on lap 65. On lap 161, an incident occurred when Richard Johns got sideways off of turn 4 and came down into Colin Braun and Brad Coleman. Coleman would cut a right front tire and hit the outside wall in turn 1. The 17th caution flew on the same lap. The caution was listed for debris which meant this would be the first and only non-incidental caution of the race. Marcos Ambrose pitted during the caution which would give the lead to Jason Keller and Keller led the field to the restart on lap 170. On lap 173, David Reutimann took the lead which would be only the 2nd and final lead change on track in the race. On lap 176, the 18th caution would fly when Mike Wallace spun off of turn 4 and had Brad Keselowski and Carl Edwards both spin to avoid Wallace. The race would restart on lap 182. On lap 183, the 19th caution would fly when Bobby East spun in turn 4 after getting bumped by Steve Wallace. The race would restart on lap 189. On lap 191, the 20th caution would fly when Brandon Miller got dumped by Dario Franchitti in turn 3 and crashed hard into the outside wall. The race would restart on lap 199. With 51 laps to go on lap 200, the 21st caution would fly when John Graham and Dario Franchitti spun in turn 3. The race would restart with 46 laps to go. With 43 to go, the 22nd caution would fly when Tim McCreadie spun in turns 3 and 4. The race would restart with 39 laps to go. The restart would be the first green flag run to go over 5 laps since the race restarted on lap 151. But with 31 laps to go, the 23rd caution would fly when Bobby East and Colin Braun crashed in turn 4. The caution would pass the Cup Series' all-time record in cautions. The race would restart with 27 laps to go. The race got a green flag run in of over 10 laps before the 24th caution flew with 17 to go when Steve Wallace crashed in turn 3 after getting spun by Brian Keselowski. Wallace was unhappy with Keselowski and Wallace caught up to Keselowski during the caution and bumped him in the rear a few times before cutting him off on the entrance of pit road. The race would restart with 13 laps to go. The restart had another green flag run of over 10 laps. It looked like the race was going to come to an end. But with just a lap and a half to go, the 25th and final caution would fly when Brent Sherman spun off of turn 4. This meant that the race would get extended to a green-white-checkered finish for the 4th Memphis race in a row. On the restart, David Reutimann would pull away from second place and Reutimann would win the caution-filled race. The race would be Reutimann's first and only Busch Series win of his career. Mike Bliss, David Ragan, Marcos Ambrose, and Jason Leffler rounded out the top 5 while Scott Wimmer, Jamie McMurray, Jason Keller, Brad Keselowski, and Brian Keselowski rounded out the top 10.[4]

The race featured a total of 25 cautions for a total of 117 laps which is nearly half the race was ran under caution. The mark was one short of the all-time record that occurred in the 1992 Mountain Dew 500 at Hickory Motor Speedway when 26 cautions flew for 132 of the 300 laps ran in the race. The average speed of the race was only 62.487 mph compared to the 74.336 mph average from last years' race. NASCAR has not seen this many cautions since this race. The race still stands as the 2nd most cautioned period race in all of NASCAR history behind the 1992 Mountain Dew 500 and in front of the 2005 Coca-Cola 600.[5]
