Blaine Perkins (born February 8, 2000) is an American professional stock car racing driver. He currently competes full-time in the ARCA Menards Series West, driving the No. 9 Ford for Sunrise Ford Racing. He has also competed part-time in the ARCA Racing Series in the past.

Racing career

Perkins made his debut in the West Series in 2015 at All American Speedway in Roseville, California, driving the No. 54 Toyota for Bill McAnally Racing, where he started 17th and finished 13th. 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.[1]

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 (now the ARCA Menards Series West) 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.[2]
