Notes: Al attempted to qualify at the NHRA Springnationals, but his 6.450/218.07 best was good for the seventh alternate. At Sanair for the NHRA Grandnationals, only fifteen cars showed for the sixteen-car field. Hofmann's 24.314/59.53 qualified for the show. In the opening round, he improved by almost eighteen seconds to 6.324/229.59 to beat Pat Walsh's 6.37/185. Unfortunately, he lost to Mark Oswald in round two with a 13-second shutoff. He was the fourth alternate at NHRA Maple Grove at 6.370/211.11. Al ran 6.07/236 at Englishtown Funny Car Nats 1987. |

Notes: Was an established Full-Time Racer in the US. Came and raced in Australia; maybe his wife Helen persuaded him. Picked up what was the start of his BDS Blowers sponsorship in Australia and used it as a stepping stone to bigger and better things. RIP, Al Hofmann, you are and always will be a Legend. - Scott Robertson |

Notes: Al qualified #13 at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals with a 5.47/267.37. He broke in the first round, against Bruce Larson. At the NHRA Arizona Nationals, a 5.54/262.54 qualified #14. He lost to John Force in the first round. In March, he was at Houston for the NHRA Supernationals, where he qualified #15 with a 5.65/242.65. Larson got him in round one. Al continued to do well qualifying for these shows. At the NHRA Gatornationals, his 5.53/251.25 qualified #11. Once again, he lost early when he and his opponent, Jim Dunn, smoked the tires in round one. Al shut down to 13.43/54.80 while Jim advanced with a 6.39/235. Hofmann then went to Rockingham for the NHRA Winston Invitational. This was an eight-car field, and his 5.57/259.29 failed(third alternate)to qualify. He got past the first-round at the next NHRA event, the Southern Nationals at Atlanta. There he ran 5.61/259.14 to qualify #12, and in the first round, he fouled. But in the opposite lane, K.C. Spurlock was crossing the centerline, and due to the first or worse rule, Al advanced. Unfortunately, in the second round, his T-Bird broke and gave Force an easy win. Photo courtesy Al Hofmann. |

Notes: Al qualified #5 at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals with a 5.30/280.28. In the first round, he beat Gary Bolger with a 5.28/273.97. In round two, he ran a 5.30/277.52 but lost to Jim Epler's 5.27/272. At the NHRA Arizona Nationals, Hofmann continued to qualify well, running a 5.38/265.56 for the #7 spot. However, he lost in the first round, to Gary Densham. The next race on the NHRA schedule was at Houston for the Supernationals, where he qualified #5 with a 5.29/271.90. He made it into the semifinals by beating Bolger in the first round, with a 5.30/272.14, and in round two, a 5.28/273.30 beat Del Worsham. In the semis, a 5.23/273.30 finished second best to Cruz Pedregon's track record 5.10/272. A 5.25/277.17 qualified #2 at Gainesville for the NHRA Gatornationals, but in the first round, he smoked the tires to a 10.31/74.14 loss to Bolger's 5.23/275. Rockingham hosted the NHRA Winston Invitational in April. Al qualified for the eight-car show with a 5.31/277.09. In round one, he beat Whit Bazemore's 5.45/270 with a 5.34/271.65. In the semifinals, both he and Mark Oswald ran 5.40 (Al at 272), but Mark got the win. At Atlanta for the NHRA Southern Nationals, he qualified #9 with a 5.38/276.66. He really stepped it up for the first-round, running a 5.22/281.25, but that wasn't good enough to advance, as John Force ran a 5.19/269 to get the win. Al was smiling after the next NHRA race, as he won the NHRA Mid-South Nationals. He qualified #2 with a 5.30/280.37 and improved to a 5.25/273.14 in winning his first-round race over Jerry Caminito's 5.67/231. In the second round, another 5.30 at 273.97 beat Chuck Etchells, and in the semifinals, a 5.38/274.22 beat a motor blowing Force at 5.41/269. He met Bazemore in the final, and Whit smoked the tires while Hofmann recorded a 5.40/279.67 victory. He repeated at the very next race, winning the NHRA Springnationals to make it two in a row. There he ran 5.29/275.65 to qualify #4. A first-round 5.35/273.14 beat Norm Wilding, and in round two, a 5.31/274.47 advanced when Gordon Mineo fouled. Al was sharp on the tree in the semifinals when his 5.28/273.22 took out Etchells' quicker 5.26/278. A final round 5.31 at only 263.31 got the win when Pedregon fouled. He almost made it three in a row when he made it into the finals at the NHRA Grandnationals in Canada. Al qualified on the pole with a 5.34 (Low ET) at 274.22. He advanced past the first-round with a 5.45/270.67 when Troy Ray broke. In round two, a 5.43/266.50 stopped Worsham's 5.58/272, and in the semifinals, a 5.41/263.85 beat Mark Oswald's off pace 5.84/196. In the final, he ran Force, and John's 5.34/278 got the victory over Al's 5.42/264.70. His luck ran out at the NHRA Mopar Parts Nationals at Englishtown. He didn't run badly there; he just didn't make it into another final. A 5.24/264.08 qualified #3, and he ran a strong 5.21/277.86 in the first round, to beat R.C. Sherman, but in round two, he smoked the tires and lost to Worsham's 5.32/277. |

Notes: Al qualified #2 at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals with a 5.13/289.20. A first-round 5.25/282.48 beat Richard Hartman while in round two, a 5.16/281.86 beat a tire-smoking Tom Hoover. In the semifinals, his 5.30/283.72 lost to Del Worsham's 5.22/290. At the NHRA Motorcraft Nationals in Arizona, a 5.26/282.48 qualified #7. He beat Chuck Etchells' 5.22/272 in the first round, with a 5.15/287.72. In the second round be beat John Force's 5.22 with a 5.16/276.07. Unfortunately, the run came at a price as the engine blew and the resulting fire destroyed the car. He was unable to run in the semifinals giving his scheduled opponent, Jim Epler a freebie into the final. He recovered nicely at Houston for the NHRA Supernationals. There he ran a career-best (to this point) 5.09 at 289.57 to qualify #2. In round one a 5.13/281.86 beat Jack Wyatt. In the second round, his 5.18/285.62 beat Hoover. In the semifinals, he beat Brent Fanning with a 5.18/269.05. This moved him into the final against Force. Al wanted this one badly, maybe too badly, as he fouled and shut down to 10.16/81.16 while John got the victory with a 5.05/289. He picked up a bit more at the NHRA Gatornationals when he set a Gainesville track record in qualifying #1 with a 5.08 at 284.36. Hofmann and Force worker their way to the final for the second NHRA event in a row. Al beat Epler with a 5.40/268.33 in the first round, while a 5.21/283.46 advanced in round two when Chuck Etchells broke. In the semifinals, Gary Bolger smoked the tires and Al's 5.17/284.27 moved into the final. Luck was not on Al's side as he when into a wheelstand and shut down to 11.08/74.61 while Force got another one with a 5.21/257. He hit a home run at Rockingham for the NHRA Winston Invitational. While the event didn't offer points, it was sure a dominating performance. He qualified #1 in the eight-car field with a 5.26/278.63. He ran like a bracket racer hitting 5.26/276.83 and 5.26/282.39 to beat Bolger and Cruz Pedregon and advance into the final. In the final, he met Gordie Bonin driving the "Hawaiian." Al got the victory with a Low ET and Top Speed blast of 5.18/288.55. |
