2007 Goody's Cool Orange 500

2007 Goody's Cool Orange 500

The 2007 Goody's Cool Orange 500, the sixth race of the 2007 Nextel Cup Series, was held on Sunday, April 1 of that year at the 0.526 mile Martinsville Speedway in Martinsville, Virginia, the circuit's shortest (by distance) oval.

The event was the second to utilize NASCAR's Car of Tomorrow template, and the first in which the 2007 Top 35 teams (by owner points) were awarded exemptions.

The winner of the race was Jimmie Johnson of the Hendrick Motorsports team. His teammate, Jeff Gordon, placed second by less than a second after a battle between the two during the last laps of the race. Gordon attempted many times to take the lead from Johnson by passing on the inside, however Johnson held his position and managed to regain spacing ahead of Gordon on the straightaways.
