Bobby Labonte’s streak of 704 consecutive races ends this weekend as the 2000 Cup Series Champion has played the NASCAR equivalent of musical chairs, and lost, he is without a ride. Bobby himself confirmed the news yesterday as his streak dating back to 1993 is over, Ricky Rudd holds the longest at 788 straight starts, and Jeff Gordon is the longest active streak at 705. AJ Allmendinger takes the wheel of the 47 car this weekend at Kentucky, and congratulations to AJ on his first NASCAR win in last weeks Nationwide Series race at Road America
