Creed made his Dakar Rally debut in 2016; at the age of 18, he was the youngest driver to compete in the event.
However, in Stage 8, clutch issues prompted him to skip waypoints due to the time limit, resulting in his disqualification.

In May 2017, while racing with the Stadium Super Trucks at Barbagallo Raceway in Perth, Creed participated in the Aussie Racing Cars support event; he drove the No.
57 car usually run by fellow SST driver Bill Hynes as Hynes wished to focus on the trucks.
Sharing the car with Robby Gordon, Creed finished ninth after starting last.
Later in the month, he began dabbling in sports car racing when he joined the Trans-Am Series at Road Atlanta, driving Stevens-Miller Racing's Dodge Challenger in the TA2 class as part of a four-race schedule, which included racing at Detroit, Mid-Ohio, and Road America.
Although he had no prior experience at Road Atlanta and was unable to test the car due to other obligations, he prepared for the race using iRacing.com, in-car video from Stevens-Miller, and a virtual track system from Ross Bentley.

At Road Atlanta, he finished tenth in his class, which he improved upon in Detroit with a fourth-place run.
He recorded another top ten at Mid-Ohio (sixth) before scoring his first TA2 win at Road America; in rainy conditions, he passed race leader Tony Buffomante with five laps remaining.
Creed attributed his success in such weather to his experience in off-road racing as both require heavy throttle control.
