For the second time in a span of three weeks, Tyler Roahrig celebrated a win at Berlin Raceway.

On August 28, Roahrig won at the Michigan facility when the yourBIGplans.com 500 Sprint Car Tour came to town, continuing an impressive streak of seven wins in seven series races at Berlin. On Saturday night, Roahrig won with the Reveal the Hammer Outlaw Late Model Series.

Roahrig started Saturday by setting a track record during qualifying, starting 16th following the invert. He took the lead on lap 46 of the 60-lap race. With the win, Roahrig regains sole possession of the top spot on the Reveal the Hammer Series' all-time wins list, an honor that has gone back and forth between himself and Steve Needles throughout the 2026 season.

Despite what appeared to be a dominant showing, Roahrig was unhappy with his race car early in Saturday's feature.

"Behind the 4 car in lapped traffic was a little sketchy a few times," said Roahrig in victory lane. "Trying not to get wrecked there. Man, honestly, after the first yellow, I almost pitted, I was so loose. I'm like, man, this is going to be a long race. Then, I thought, I haven't been free enough here lately. Just man up and drive the hell out of this thing. Luckily, I didn't pit, or I probably wouldn't have won.

"We have a good time racing. It's been a pretty dismal year, to be honest with you. Hopefully, we can the year on a high note, starting with tonight.

"This is the last race of the year in this car. We've not ran so good the last two outings with this thing. I've been working on it for the greater good. I've got to give a shoutout to Mike Garvey and Chris Davidson. They've been a huge help in guiding me in the right direction, mentoring me. I am really fortunate to have guys of that intelligence, and they're well respected. It's cool to have guys like that in my corner."

While Roahrig celebrated his win, Mark Shook secured his second Reveal the Hammer Outlaw Late Model Series championship with a sixth-place finish. While Shook did not visit victory lane with Reveal the Hammer in 2026, his consistency earned him a hard-fought title.

"The year didn't go as good as we wanted it to be," said Shook. "We wanted to obviously be in victory lane more often. Nonetheless, we were consistent enough to run up front and fortunate enough to beat the rest of the competition, which was very strong. My buddy Zack Cook, hopefully he was either second or third, Phil [Bozell], those guys, it's great running those guys. They're clean. It's just fun to race with clean racers like that."

Chloe Mazzagatti earned the Elliott's Custom Trailers & Carts Brandyn Ross Memorial Rookie of the Year for the series, ending the year with a 13th-place finish. The rookie season has had its share of ups and downs for the 15-year-old driver, who did double duty on Saturday. Mazzagatti took part in the Turn One CRA Pro Series race at Berlin to start Saturday night before strapping in for 60 laps of Outlaw Late Model racing.

"We didn't finish the first two races [of the season], started off a little rough," said Mazzagatti. "All of a sudden, we came back at the end at full force, started figuring things out, getting back in the rhythm of the car. I'm still pretty new to these big cars. Tonight, we had a really good run. The car was a handful. I did double-duty tonight with my Pro Late Model and Outlaw. The Outlaw was just a handful. We're going to have to take it home and go through it. We finished and we got Rookie of the Year, so I couldn't be happier."

Adam Terry finished second in the event after leading 12 laps. Terry took the lead from Zack Cook, who had inherited pole position following the invert and led the first 33 laps. Terry was pleased with a runner-up finish after racing under the weather.

"It was a fun race," said Terry. "Pretty clean, which is great to see here. A couple of little spins, single-car incidents and stuff. Makes it exciting, gives some restarts and some opportunities there.

"I'm sweating like crazy. I've been sick for two weeks, battling illness. My guys gave me a hell of a car. We got a little too free on the outside there, getting in lapped traffic. I slid the nose and got the back end loose, gave Tyler a shot and he took full advantage of it. Obviously, he had a hot rod tonight, fast time and a track record, which is pretty incredible. Hats off to that team."

Tim DeVos rounded out the podium with a third-place finish. DeVos started alongside Roahrig in the eighth row after setting the second-fastest time in qualifying, but spent most of the race chasing the No. 24 machine.

"A caution would have been huge," said DeVos. "Tyler kind of screwed me and jumped three deep on that start, which was fine. He left plenty of room for the 2 car, and then the 2 car saw him, jumped up, hit me, knocked me wide, put me back. I had to keep digging after that.

"I couldn't tell who was lapped cars, I'm not familiar enough with these cars. I ddin't know who to run hard, who to let go and who to move out of the way. I just wasn't keeping up, so I had to turn it up pretty early. It had good drive until I broke the spoiler, it bumped the walll one time and broke the spoiler. I lost all my drive; it was sideways, I couldn't figure out why until I got here and saw the spoiler was broken."

Zack Cook finished fourth, with Phil Bozell rounding out the top five.
