MADISON, MN (October 2) - Jacob Knapper, Tommy Bawden, Ryan Flaten, Justin Vogel, and Adam VanDerostyne were victorious during the first night of action at Lou’s Madtown Showdown Friday night, October 2, as Madison Speedway held its final weekend of action for 2026.

Bawden scored his first-ever victory in the WISSOTA Super Stocks, beating Travis Scott, Karter Reents, Andrew Hedtke, and Dylan Nelson to the line in the top five.

Flaten continued his great season Friday with the win in the WISSOTA Midwest Mods. Tim Kanten was second, Haley Dykhoff was third, Jake Smith was fourth and Jake Molitor rounded out the top five.

VanDerostyne displaced front-row starter William Lange for the eventual victory in the WISSOTA Hornets. Lange settled for second ahead of Brandon Louwagie, Christian Kast, and Dalten Pedersen in the top five.
