PAUL BARBER
Paul Barber has been drag racing for over 20 years and started out crewing on dirt modified cars at the age of 14. For the past four years he has driven the Barber Racing H-66. This year he will be returning to racing as the Team H8 H-66. A proven Team, Paul will be running alongside fellow Team H8 Racing driver Derec Smith in the H-13. In 2011 the duo won both the Canadian High Point series and the North American Championship sharing driving duties in Derec’s previous boat “Adrenaline Rush.” When Paul is not behind the wheel of the H-66 he spends his time building drag cars and hot rods professionally and has been doing so for 21 years. An excellent driver, mechanic, and craftsmen, Paul is surely a welcome and invaluable member of Team H8 Racing.

Paul’s Thoughts on Joining the Team :
“It is an awesome opportunity to be joining up with H8 Cancer Racing. We first met at the Stuart Sailfish Regatta and I am looking forward to joining together with John III, Dave, Derec and the rest of the team in racing for such a great cause. I am very happy to be a part of H8 Cancer Racing and Derec and I are proven to work great together.”
