#33-Bowyer HAD been running at the finish in 83 consecutive races, which is a modern era record but fell ONE short of the all-time record. #14-Stewart and #19-Sadler have the longest current streak of finishing races at 34. #78-Regan Smith is at 47 but has not run all the races. The all-time record for the longest streak of NOT having an DNF is 84 races held by Herman Beam from April 30, 1961 thru March 10, 1963 [Beam didn’t run all the races, but didn’t DNF in 84 straight consecutive races that he ran]. Clint Bowyer holds the modern day (1972-present) at 83, next is Kevin Harvick at 81 and 58, then Jeff Gordon at 56 and Dale Earnhardt at 53.(5-9-2009)
