Ryan Philbrick delivered a wire-to-wire victory at Las Vegas Motor Speedway to open the RFRL O'Reilly Series season finale, leading all 115 laps from pole position aboard the #06 machine. The race ran remarkably clean with just two cautions consuming only six laps, allowing Philbrick to control the pace throughout the 19-car field. Scott Millikan advanced two positions from his fourth-place starting spot to claim second in the #03, while Brian Sousa drove from eighth to complete the podium in third, gaining five positions during the 115-lap affair.

Chuck Burley authored the most impressive drive of the night, earning hard charger honors by storming from 13th on the grid to fourth place at the checkered flag in the #4 Chevrolet. His nine-position improvement netted him 33 championship points, while Brandon Hinton also gained nine spots by climbing from 19th to tenth. The race proved costly for several front-runners, as Chase Ratliff plummeted from second to 14th with 13 incidents plaguing his #41 entry, and Cody Bousman fell 12 positions from fifth to 17th after accumulating four incidents.

Tom Ringer entered the season finale holding a narrow two-point advantage over Shaun Dionne in the championship standings, with the #68 driver needing only to avoid disaster to claim his first O'Reilly Series title. Ringer delivered exactly what was required, advancing one position from sixth to fifth to score 32 points and secure the championship by four points over Dionne, who finished seventh. Chuck Burley's stellar fourth-place run catapulted him from fourth to third in the final standings with 127 points, while Todd Parent's six-position improvement to sixth place elevated him to fourth in the championship hunt.

With zero races remaining on the schedule, Ringer's championship triumph caps off a season-long battle that came down to the wire at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The new champion's consistent performance throughout the campaign, combined with his ability to capitalize when it mattered most, proved decisive in securing the O'Reilly Series crown with 161 points. Dionne's 157-point total and second-place championship finish represents a valiant effort that fell just short, while the 10 drivers who completed the race without incident demonstrated the high level of competition throughout the field.
