Inside Line Promotions – COLUMBUS, Miss. (July 6, 2026) – Jordon Mallett will be out of a race car for at least the next two weeks following a hard impact last Thursday at Magnolia Motor Speedway.

Mallett placed fourth in a heat race and had guided the A.G. Rains’ owned sprint car from the sixth row into the top five late in the USCS Series feature before he was involved in a crash.

“I had made it up to fifth from 12th with two laps to go,” he said. “Third and fourth got together. A car had gotten upside down in front of us. It stopped flipping just in front of me and I had no exit plan or anywhere to go. I managed to get the car turned sideways and hit him with a head of steam. We didn’t get upside down, but just a sudden stop and a hard impact.

“I was on enough of an adrenaline high until after I tried to refire the car and we pulled off the race track. By the time they pushed me back to the trailer I realized I’d have to have help getting out of the race car.”

Mallett was credited with a 14th-place result, snapping his career-best eight-race top-five streak. He ended the night with a trip to the emergency room.

“I have a severe concussion and rest is all that will heal it,” he said. “I have a lot of right side pain in my ribcage where it bruised the bones. Other than that, everything else is sore as expected. Praise God nothing was broken. It could have been way worse.

“We’re going to sit out the next two weekends and re-evaluate from there. It’s a real bummer because there’s a pair of ASCS National Tour races in Arkansas this weekend that we were really looking forward to, but health comes first.”
