CONCORD, N.C. (CNNSI.com) -- Dale Jarrett, who felt a pop in his right side during Saturday morning's practice for the Coca-Cola 600, has been diagnosed with a broken rib by a local doctor.

Jarrett crashed his car during qualifying Thursday night, but wasn't sure if that was the cause of the injury.

"I was going into turn three and I just felt a pop," Jarrett said. "I don't know if it's from a previous injury or something from the other night."

"I had no indication. I worked out yesterday and lifted weights and ran like I normally would and had no problems."

It is reported that Jarrett will undergo elctro stim treatment and that his team will add more cushioning to his car; Jarrett says that he plans to run the full 600 miles Sunday.
