NASCAR XFINITY drivers were involved in a serious crash on Saturday under the Sciaps 300 on Bristol Motor Speedway.
Dean Thompson entered the back of Creed as they got around the turn 4. Creed spun up the field and supported the wall. Unfortunately, he was perpendicular to the other drivers who tried to avoid him. Brennan Poole was unable to get out of the way when Creed stopped.

Poole buzzed through Creed and created a huge collision. Creed’s left front came completely unclear, while pooles the entire right side of his vehicle tore as well as his right back tire.
“It knocked the weather out of me,” Poole told NBC Sports after he was released from the Infield Care Center. “I was talking to Sheldon when we got into the trailer and he said it was blowing out of him too.”

“Just things happen so fast and you go so fast. Not much time to avoid a car sitting in the middle of the track as I was,” he added.
Poole ended in 36. And Creed was 37th place.
Kyle Larson finished in first place with Carson Kvapil, Justin Allgaier, Sammy Smith and Brandon Jones, who rounded the top five.
