NASCARネクステルカップ第10戦タラデガ決勝レースは、ジョー・ギブス、トヨタ・カムリのカイル・ブッシュが今季2勝目を飾った。デイトナと並ぶプレートレース(エアリストラクター付)のタラデガではブッシュは初優勝だった。また、ファン・モントーヤがオーバルコース自己最高位タイの2位に入った。(1回目の2位は昨年のインディアナポリス)
レースは最後のコーション後ラスト8ラップでグリーンフラッグとなり、ラスト2ラップには4番手にいたモントーヤが2番手に上がり、トップのブッシュを追ってラストラップに入った。しかし、その直後ターン2では後方集団でマルチクラッシュが発生、即座にイエローフラッグとなりモントーヤの追撃もここまで。最後はチェッカーフラッグとイエローフラッグの両方が出されるゴールとなった。
レース序盤はトニー・スチュワートなどジョー・ギブスの3台がレースをリード、スチュワートはこのレースの最多ラップリーダーとなったものの、レース終盤のクラッシュに巻き込まれて39位に終わった。
この結果、ランキングではトップのジェフ・バートンは変わらないものの、2位のブッシュは22ポイント差まで迫った。また、モントーヤは今回の2位によりNASCAR参戦以来初めてチェイス圏内の12位に上昇した。
