Brown explained that interest in the Chicago Cup race may leave him to tackle that event in the second-tier Xfinity Series.
“Chicago is one I want to do but a lot of the guys over there want to do it, so it’s [a matter of] if a car is available, a team is available,” he said.
“I’m waiting to hear on that one. That’d be awesome if I could try and do that, but I’d be happy to do Xfinity if I couldn’t get that. Obviously, Xfinity over there is pretty big.”
Ruled out are a return to Sonoma or a visit to NASCAR’s other famous road course, Watkins Glen, as those events clash with Supercars rounds at Townsville and Ipswich respectively.
