Early Life and Background
Creed’s passion for racing began early, starting with BMX bikes at age three before moving to motocross at age six, where he claimed two championships. As a teenager, he dominated short course off-road racing, particularly in the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series (LOORRS) and Stadium Super Trucks (SST). With 39 SST victories, he remains the all-time wins leader in that series. Creed made the switch to stock car racing in 2016, competing in ARCA, the NASCAR K&N Pro Series, and part-time in the Truck Series to gain experience on asphalt tracks.
Career
Creed’s stock car career accelerated with his 2018 ARCA Racing Series championship, earned with Venturini Motorsports through four wins and consistent top finishes. He then joined GMS Racing in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, achieving multiple wins and capturing the 2020 Truck Series championship in just his second full-time season. Creed’s aggressive driving style and adaptability made him one of the most exciting prospects in NASCAR.
Transitioning to the NASCAR Xfinity Series, Creed ran part-time entries starting in 2017 before joining Stewart-Haas Racing full-time in the No. 00 Ford Mustang Dark Horse. Though frequently finishing in the top five, Creed developed a reputation for runner-up results, earning the nickname “Silver Creed” as he continues his hunt for that elusive first Xfinity Series victory.
Off-Track Ventures
Away from the track, Creed is heavily involved in fan engagement and charity work, often supporting initiatives that promote youth participation in motorsports. With his unique experience spanning BMX, motocross, off-road trucks, and stock cars, Creed advocates for diverse paths into professional racing. He maintains a disciplined lifestyle focused on fitness, competition, and brand development to support his NASCAR career.
