[edit]

In the 2023 season Creighton competed in the WRC3 and JWRC with Liam Regan as co-driver.[2] He won the JWRC drivers' championship after leading the series for much of the season. At the season finale of Acropolis Rally, where double points were available, he retired and re-entered with Super-rally. Finishing 5th and together with points for special stage victories was enough to win the Junior Championship.[3][4]
