In a 23-year run from the final race of 1992 until the last event of 2015, Gordon started 797 Cup races in a row, breaking Ricky Rudd’s prior “Iron Man” record of 788 consecutive Cup Series race starts. Gordon took the lead in the category when he took the green flag at Loudon, New Hampshire, on Sept. 27, 2015.
Gordon would go on to become an outstanding member of the Fox Sports NASCAR telecasts until June 23, 2021, when his former boss and business partner, Rick Hendrick, named Gordon as Vice Chairman of Team Hendrick—basically the No. 2 man in the Hendrick Motorsports depth chart, and the expected heir to the leadership throne of HMS once Rick Hendrick decides to retire.• Won 93 races, third on NASCAR’s all-time wins list, behind Richard Petty’s 200 wins and• Won four NASCAR Cup championships .
