Parson was an under-rated very talented driver. He actually set a faster race lap than Brock in car 10 at Bathurst in 1987. When the HDT snapped him up in 1984, Captain Peter Jansen said I wish the HDT would stop stealing my co-drivers (the HDT had gotten Larry Perkins from Jansen two years prior)
Loving the clips mate. Takes me back to my childhood growing up in Bathurst!
Yeah, loving all the clips! Getting me pumped for Challenge Bathurst next weekend. Such a privilege to drive the track at speed.

Agreed David! One of the most severely underrated co-drivers in Bathurst history. Drove extremely well for a "once a year racer".
Out qualified Brock in 1985 Bathurst too . Which was a great achievement on used tyres.
This bloke was that good Brock had Parsons in his team so he could keep an eye on him and not get beaten by him - 100% fact - great driver
