Racing career

After that, he secured a full-time ride in the series the following season with Steve Portenga Racing in their No. 21 car.
Perkins moved to the ARCA Racing Series for 2018, and drove in five races for Mason Mitchell Motorsports in the team's No. 98 and No. 78 Chevrolet's. He had previously made his debut in the series the prior year at Kentucky for Mitchell's team, where he started and finished ninth in that race.
After being without a ride for all of the 2019 season in any NASCAR series or ARCA, Perkins returned in 2020, joining Sunrise Ford Racing in the West Series to drive their No. 9 Ford, replacing Jagger Jones as a driver on the team. Perkins' new teammate Trevor Huddleston drove the No. 9 in 2019 and moved to the No. 6, replacing Jones, the 2019 series rookie of the year and 2nd-place points finisher, who was knocked out of a ride. Perkins would earn his first win in the West Series in the second race of the Utah Motorsports Campus doubleheader on June 27. He also won the pole for the first race of the doubleheader, which was his first pole in the West Series. He would finish eleventh in that race.
