West Salem, WI- Two points separated Skylar Holzhausen and Jacob Goede in the final NASCAR Late Model Championship Standings once the dust settled following four feature events during the two opening days of the 2024 Oktoberfest Race Weekend.   The 2025 edition is shaping up to be even better as now three drivers; Holzhausen, Goede and Adam Bendzick are all within eight points of one another heading into the 56th Oktoberfest Race Weekend (Oct 2-5, 2025) at LaCrosse Fairgrounds Speedway.  Goede, a ten time Elko Speedway Champion recently secured his second NASCAR National Title and leads Bendzick by a single point.  Holzhausen seeks his third consecutive title at the 5/8 mile paved oval, lagging behind Goede by just eight markers.  The NASCAR Late Models will compete in a pair of 22-lap features on Thursday October 2 as part of the Tom Reffner 88 Tribute and then compete in a pair of 20-lap features on Friday October 3 to decide the Champion.
