Racing career
In 2019, Peterson made his debut in the ARCA Menards Series at Salem Speedway, driving the No. 0 Ford for Wayne Peterson Racing. He went on to finish 21st after running only three laps due to brake issues.[2] He then entered in the next event at Lucas Oil Raceway, where he did not set a time in qualifying and did not start the race; he would officially be classified in 22nd position.[3]
In 2024, Peterson participated in the pre-season test for the ARCA Menards Series at Daytona International Speedway, driving the No. 06 Toyota for Wayne Peterson Racing,[4] and was the fastest of 7 drivers who piloted the same 06 Toyota placing 70th in the overall results between the two testing days.[5] In April of that year, it was revealed that Peterson would drive the No. 0 Toyota at Talladega Superspeedway.[6][7][8] Driving a short track car at the superspeedway, he started 34th and drove up to 30th but would finish in 34th after mechanical issues plagued his run after seven laps.[9] Peterson would return at Talladega in 2025, driving the No. 0 Ford with sponsorship from Auburn Athletics,[10] and would finish 36th after running only ten laps due to overheating issues.[11]
