Joe Santangelo II, has enjoyed a lot of success in his career but nowhere has he been more successful than his home track, New England Dragway. For the fourth time in the last seven years, the Connecticut-based Santangelo has earned an Epping win. His latest victory came as the result of a narrow final-round win against Rhode Island’s Justin Picillo in Super Stock. Santangelo ran a 10.108 on his 10.10 dial and needed it after Picillo posted a 9.414 on his 9.40 prediction. Santangelo topped Russ Linke to earn a bye into the final, and Picillo downed Joe Lisa in the semi’s.
