David Paul Napoliello

David Paul Napoliello, 49 of Boca Raton Florida passed away at home on December 22, 2025.The second child of Vincent and Elizabeth Napoliello, David enjoyed his childhood years in Colts Neck , and his summers in Bay Head New Jersey.  David took great pleasure pursuing his career at Raceway Park, the sport of drag racing was a sincere passion of his. He was a selfless kind soul and was always thinking of other people.  David had a special gift to bring out the best and see the best in people, specifically employees that he viewed as family. David excelled at creating a team, and he led that team running races at Raceway Park. After his Fathers passing in September of 2000, he stepped into senior management of the company, often being involved heavily in public relations press conferences, media days etc…His unfettered determination of running successful events and delivering a quality product to race fans was nothing short of remarkable, a standard any track operator would envy.  Even after the transition away from drag racing David continued to give back to the racing community by supporting racers that supported Raceway Park and the Napp family. He was a pioneer by being the first kid with a junior dragster, and is forever connected with the success of the program. David was a shining light for many of his years on earth with us.  David loved all animals but cats were always dear to his heart, Teddy, ChaCha and Frederick will certainly miss him. He is survived by his mother Elizabeth ,four brothers Alex, Ryan, Kent and Drew and his nephews Alex and Nicholas, and his partner Nick and many other loving friends and family. There will be no immediate services, however in the spring there will be a celebration life at Raceway Park at a soon to be determined date. Heart Like a Wheel
