Kyle Jergensen delivered a dramatic overall victory in the Unlimited Race across the brutal Nevada desert. The victory marked Jergensen\u2019s first Mint 400 triumph in four years and came after a late-race twist that reshaped the leaderboard. Jergensen completed four laps of the rugged course in 6 hours, 47 minutes, 23.597 seconds, securing the overall win despite competing against trucks with significantly more horsepower.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_15201\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"640\"]<img class=\"size-large wp-image-15201\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2026-Mint-400_Kyle-Jergensen-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" \/> Kyle Jergensen secured an overall Mint 400 victory in a Spec truck.

However, the grueling desert terrain proved unforgiving. Early in the final lap, Householder was forced to stop for a tire change before suffering a suspension failure that ended his race, opening the door for Jergensen to take control. When the dust settled, Jergensen crossed the finish line more than four minutes ahead of second place Brett Sourapas. Ryan Arciero rounded out the podium in third. \u201cOur game plan was to let them make mistakes,\u201d Jergensen said after the race. \u201cWe made no mistakes\u2014no flats, no nothing. The truck was perfect and the team was perfect.

Voss\u2019 victory was short lived after a tire change put him down a few spots on Sunday. Apdaly Lopez was on a mission, leading all of the laps in the Smiley Motorsports truck. At one point he had over a 1-minute lead on the field. Heartbreak struck just before the finish line as Apdaly\u2019s truck broke. Adam Householder moved into position to take the top spot on the podium just seconds ahead of Concrete Motorsports. The win gave Householder the overall trophy.
