Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals Comp winner Frank Aragona Jr.
A year ago, Frank Aragona Jr. bought what is arguably the best Comp car in the country when he purchased the E/DA that Doug Doll Jr. drove to the 2016 national championship. Aragona won a lot of races last year, but he ultimately finished second to David Rampy in the points battle. Aragona claimed his 10th national event win in Comp and second in Gainesville. Paired with Greg Kamplain’s B/Econo dragster in the final, Aragona won with a (-.538) 7.332 to Kamplain’s (-.501) 6.829. Aragona entered the final down .12-second in index, while Kamplain had .13-second in Competition Index Control penalties.
