Notes: Paul started the year in the Jerome Bradford Corvette, which was destroyed in Gainesville. Smith was driving the "Custom Body" Daytona at Rockingham on May 6 for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships. His 6.21/233 qualified #10, and although he improved to 6.00/223 in the opening round, he lost to Mark Oswald's 5.92/233 in the "Candies and Hughes" car. In early June, he was still driving this car at Bristol for the IHRA Springnationals. There he qualified #14 with a 5.96/243. But in the opening round, he fouled against Raymond Beadle in the "Blue Max." Shortly after that, he was at Martin, Michigan, for the PHR Championships, where his 6.13 qualified #8. Unfortunately, he lost early. It gets confusing at Columbus for the NHRA Springnationals as the car was now a Camaro, and "Custom Body" was still listed in the entry sheet. Nevertheless, his 5.98/238.09 qualified #13, and a 6.12/215.31 fell in the first round to Don Prudhomme's 5.87/246. Was the Camaro a typo? Because at Englishtown, the "Custom Body car was definitely a Daytona as pictures from the event show. He ran 5.887 to qualify #13 for the NHRA Summernationals. Smith lost to Kenny Bernstein in the first round. Paul did not go to Denver for the NHRA Mile High Nationals. He definitely was in the Daytona by Brainerd (and PHR Martin, as evidenced in the photo). He qualified #14 at Brainerd at 6.038/243.24 but fell off to a 6.77/130 that lost to Frank Hawley in round one. AKA Utica Flash. Danny saw Smith run. Formerly listed 5.91/252.10, but we need to validate the car in which Paul ran those times.

Notes: Paul came out with Jerome's Corvette at Gainesville but destroyed it, running 6.113/252.10. He then ran at Columbus (#13 at 5.989/238.09, with a first-round loss to Don Prudhomme, 5.87/246 to 6.125/215). He qualified #13 at Englishtown as well at 5.887/250.69 with a first-round loss to Kenny Bernstein, 5.84/238 to 5.985/247.93. His last NHRA national event of the year was Brainerd in August, but he was driving the Custom Body car there. The question is: whose car was Paul driving at Columbus and Englishtown? We are listing those times with this car until we can confirm.

Notes: Ran off end of Gainesville on fire, which destroyed the car. This particular car ran a best of 6.113/252.10 (on the fiery run). Paul ran as quick as 5.88/250.69 on the NHRA trail in 1984. Was that in Jerome Bradford's Camaro or the Custom Body Daytona?

Notes: Smith was driving for Dunlap for the first time in Jan at Firebird Raceway for the Super Bowl of Drag Racing event. He qualified #7 in the eight-car field with a 6.11/248.61, but his blower exploded in the lights in the first round. The car caught fire and destroyed the Tempo body, but Paul was OK. He had run 6.23/216.86 and won his race with Rick Johnson driving the "Hawaiian." The team made repairs and made it to Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals. A 5.951/244.69 qualified #13. Unfortunately, he lost to Ed McCulloch in the opening round, 5.94/249 to 8.06/104. Smith was at Green Valley Raceway for an eight-car show early in March. In the first round, his 6.16/238.72 lost to Gary Cochran's 6.11/226. A week later (March 10), he won over an eight-car field at Atlanta Dragway. He qualified #3 with a 5.86/247.93. Tom Hoover smoked the tires and shut off against him in round one, and Smith advanced with a 6.45/188.67. Rick Johnson, driving the "Hawaiian," also overpowered the track in the semifinal, and Paul won with an easy 6.36/220.58. In the final, he faced Mark Oswald in the "Candies & Hughes" car. For the third time, his competition smoked the tires against him. Paul's 6.01/240.64 got the victory over Mark's tire frying 9.09/94. Things didn't go so well for the NHRA Gatornationals in Gainesville. Twenty-two cars had been shown, and Paul was the second alternate at 5.996/232.07. By April, he was driving the "Custom Body" car. | Paul Smith went to drive the Castronovo car in the Spring of '85. - Joe Moore

Notes: Smith finished runner-up to John Force at the Englishtown Spring Funny Car Bonanza. He lost traction and fell off to 7.36/125.87 to lose to John's 6.29/229.88. Paul earlier had run 6.13/216.86 in round one. Smith failed to qualify at Atlanta for the NHRA Southern Nationals, where he was the second alternate at 6.17/241.02. He also raced at Rockingham in the first week of May for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships but lost early. Soon after, he was at Maple Grove for its Spring FC Nationals. Six cars ran with the two cars with the lowest ETs meeting in the final. Paul's 6.11/198.23 advanced to the final to face Bruce Larson. But in the final, the parachute fell out of the "Custom Body" car on the line, and Larson made a 6.28 solo for the victory. He did not race at Baton Rouge for the NHRA Cajun Nationals but at Bristol early in June for the IHRA Springnationals. His 6.02/223 in the first round fell to Kenny Bernstein's 5.67/260. He qualified on the "bump" at Columbus for the NHRA Springnationals with a 6.04/241.80. In round one, an off-pace 6.68/139.44 lost to Tom McEwen's 5.92/240. His next stop was in Canada for the NHRA Grandnationals. Only 15 cars showed, so qualifying was not much of an issue. He ran 5.91/224.21 for the #13 spot in the show. His 6.04/249.03 in the opening round lost to eventual winner Rick Johnson's 5.91/251 in the "Hawaiian." In mid-July, he returned to Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, where his 5.83 qualified #14. Unfortunately, he lost to John Collins in round one. He made his third IHRA start of the year at Edgewater for the IHRA Summernationals. He qualified #9, and in the first round, he beat McEwen with a 5.85/252.52. The car got out of shape against Bernstein in the second round, and Smith got disqualified for crossing the centerline. Paul qualified #15 at Brainerd for the NHRA Northstar Nationals with a 5.95/248.61. He improved to a 5.85/253.52 in the opening round to beat McEwen's 5.97/243, and an even better 5.80/240.00 beat Tom Hoover's 6.12/206 in round two. But he overpowered the track in the semifinals and smoked the tires in a loss to John Collins. His 5.734/255.24 qualified #5 for the NHRA U.S. Nationals at Indy. He slowed to 5.86/254.66 in the first round and lost to Ed McCulloch's 5.82/253. Shortly after, Smith was at Maple Grove for the NHRA Keystone Nationals. He qualified #12 with a 5.87/244.69. In the first round, both he and Johnson ran 5.75 (Smith at 251.25), but the "Hawaiian" won. The following week (September 22), he was at Englishtown for the U.S. All-Pro FC Championships. His 5.94 in the first round lost to eventual winner John Force's 5.89. He was at Darlington for the IHRA Stroh's Nationals in the first week of October. He qualified #7, and he made his way to the final. A 5.74/247.93 beat a tire-smoking Mark Oswald in round two, and his 5.81/242.58 defeated Billy Meyer in the semifinal. He lost to Bernstein in the final. Paul also ran 5.859/252.52 at IHRA Cincinnati. AKA Utica Flash.

Notes: Paul attempted to qualify at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, but he had all kinds of problems and could only muster a best of 9.133/88.87, obviously failing to qualify. Atlanta hosted an eight-car show in March. Traction was marginal at best. Only one car broke into the "fives" in qualifying. Smith pushed Castronovo's car to a 6.46/191.48 to qualify #6. He won his first-round race with a 12.55 when Kenny Bernstein fouled away a 6.13. In the semifinals, Paul's 6.07/236.22 lost to John Martin's 6.00/243. Paul qualified #6 at 5.906/250.13 at the NHRA Gatornationals, but eliminations were delayed one week and held on the same date as the IHRA Winternationals at Darlington. Doc Halladay took his spot on race day at Gainesville. Paul did run at Darlington, qualifying #1 in the eight-car show with a 5.98/247.25. He worked his way into the final, taking the runner-up spot to Dale Pulde. At Atlanta for the NHRA Southern Nationals, Paul ran 5.858/232.55 to qualify #6. He beat Ray Higley in the first round, 5.987/222.99 to 6.26/236, before smoking the tires to a 7.552/121.35 that lost to Jim Head in round two. In May, he won the third IHRA race of the season, the IHRA Pro-Am Championships at Rockingham. There he beat Bernstein in the final. There was a light field at Baton Rouge in June for the NHRA Cajun Nationals, so qualifying was easy. Smith ran 6.132/210.32 to qualify #12, but in the first round, his 5.994/230.82 lost to Billy Meyer's 5.76/253. He qualified on the "bump" at the NHRA Springnationals with a 6.330/228.42 and beat Jim Head in round one, 6.096/229.47 to 6.11/243. He lost to Tom McEwen in round two, 5.81/249 to 6.205/194.13. The following week (June 22), he was in St. Louis for the IHRA Gateway Nationals. Paul beat Pat Walsh in the first round before losing to eventual winner Mark Oswald in the "Candies and Hughes" car in the semifinals. Paul ran 5.788/249.58 to qualify #9 at NHRA Englishtown. He lost to Mark Oswald in round one, 5.69/258 to 5.885/244.83. Paul was the first alternate at NHRA Indy at 5.883/245.03. At the Keystones, Paul was the #4 qualifier at 5.763/240.89. He beat Pat Walsh in round one, 5.811/247.79 to 10.19/77, but lost to Tim Grose in round two, 5.97/228 to a troubled 12.11/67. Paul was the sixth alternate at Phoenix for the NHRA Fallnationals with a 6.403/223.38 effort. He was the fifth alternate at the NHRA World Finals at 5.918/243.63. AKA Utica Flash. Paul also drove Gary Craven's Nitro Fever Corvette on the IHRA trail. Were any of these NHRA times run in that car instead? The Custom Body car was confirmed through Columbus.

Notes: Paul attempted to qualify Chuck Etchells' car at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, but his best of 5.782/232.55 was good for the first alternate position. He also failed to qualify the car at the Gatornationals with a 6.23/234.37 best. | Paul finally tapped into the 5.60s at the Englishtown K-Mart/Polaroid US All Pro Funny Car Championships on 8/30/87 with a 5.67/247.25 in his 2nd Run against Al Hofmann. Paul would then Run the IHRA US Open Nationals at Rockingham where he set the IHRA Nitro Funny Car Speed record at 274.39. In round 1 Paul would defeat Mike Edstrom but would lose to Doc Halliday in the Semis. In December, Paul ran another 5.60 pass to close out the 1987 Season at Moroso during the Citrus Nationals in his Final Round victory with a 5.65.

Notes: Paul did not drive this car in NHRA competition in 1988 (driving the Etchells Top Fuel car instead). Smith qualified on the "bump" at Bristol in September for the IHRA Fallnationals. In the opening round, he smoked the tires and lost to low qualifier R.C. Sherman. The following week (October 2), he was at the Texas Motorplex for the IHRA Chief Nationals. His 5.40 qualified #5. He beat Tim Grose in the first round, but in round two, his 5.61/234.13 fell to Mark Oswald's 5.41/265. Photo from Columbus 1987.

Notes: Paul was the second alternate at NHRA Columbus in June at 5.362/254.09. At NHRA Sanair, he qualified #8 at 5.238/268.41. Shirley Muldowney drove around a solid holeshot to take a close 5.24/268 to 5.343/259.29 win in round one. At New York International on July 1, Paul was at the IHRA Empire Nationals. Qualifying was not much of an issue as only eight cars showed for the eight-car field. Paul ran 5.41 and then picked up to 5.30/256.54 in the opening round over Mike Brotherton. He smoked the tires against eventual winner Gene Snow in the semi-final. Paul qualified #14 at the NHRA Summernationals in Englishtown. He ran 5.203/268.73 in qualifying and then recorded a stout 5.180/272.23 that lost to Dick LaHaie's 5.07/275 in round one. 22 IHRA competition number. That was Paul's last NHRA national event of the year. We had long listed 5.165/279.06 as Paul's bests for 1990 (IHRA times?); we need to confirm. Photo from 1990 Grandnationals, Montreal.
