Poole buzzed through Creed, creating a great collision. Creed’s left front side was completely without hitting, while the entire right side of Poole on his vehicle started, as well as his right rear tire.
“He left me breathless,” Poole told NBC Sports after he was released from the center’s attention center. “I was talking to Sheldon when we got into the trailer and he said he also left him breathless.”
