EXCLUSIVE: REVEAL THE HAMMER OUTLAW LATE MODEL SERIES INVADES KALAMAZOO THREE TIMES IN 2027

KALAMAZOO, MI — Fans have been asking for it since Reveal the Hammer made their Kalamazoo Speedway debut in 2024 for the Marty Jones Memorial Race, and they will now receive one of their wishes not once, not twice, but three times in 2027.

The Reveal the Hammer Outlaws will race at Kalamazoo for the Intimidator 100 on Friday, April 16th which is the season opener. Then, they will return on Friday, June 4th for the running of the Legends of Kalamazoo Speedway race. Finally, the Kalamazoo Klash turns Hammer as the Series returns for the final time on Wednesday, August 18th.

The addition of the Kalamazoo Klash to the Reveal the Hammer Series schedule joins other historic events in Outlaw Super Late Model racing as they have competed at the New Paris Summer Sizzler several times which saw Jacob Maynard win the 25th addition this past August in New Paris, Indiana. Long considered the crown jewel event in Outlaw racing, the Kalamazoo Klash welcomed 28 drivers in 2026, which was not a Reveal sanctioned race, and could potentially see even more drivers appear in 2027 similar to the 2024 Marty Jones Memorial Race which saw 34 Outlaws park in the pit area.

Founded in 2021 by former New Paris Speedway owner Donny Klotz, who continues to serve as President of the Reveal the Hammer Series, the Outlaw Super Late Model Series has established itself as a premier destination for the top Outlaw Super Late Model talent across the nation. Drivers like Adam Terry, Steve Needles, Chloe Mazzagatti, Andy Bozell, Phil Bozell, and many more have all taken laps in competition, and each year the roster expands which welcomes in new talent and veteran racers. Voiced by Matt Prieur, and streamed by Racing America (also previously streamed by Road Trip Media), fans from across the nation have tuned in to watch the Outlaw Wedged Warriors compete at the highest level in some of the best facilities around like Kalamazoo, Berlin, Owosso, and Russell’s M-40.

The Reveal the Hammer Series first came to Kalamazoo in 2024 as they honored longtime Kalamazoo Speedway owner Marty Jones. Jones was instrumental in the evolution of the Kalamazoo Speedway as a national track which paved the foundation for its next owners, Gary Howe and Randy Ritchey, to build on. Now, under the leadership of new owner Don Perkins, Reveal the Hammer will return to Kalamazoo as fans have long asked for season after season. Kalamazoo has already announced additional events which includes the return of the popular Call of the Wild and two legendary Night of Destructions.

The Reveal the Hammer Series recently announced their debut in 2027 at the Angola Motorsport Speedway on Saturday, June 26th. They will continue to release schedule information in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to their Reveal the Hammer Facebook page for further updates.
