Will Brown is set to return to the United States to tackle NASCAR's best as the new Supercars champion, after revealing he is working on 2025 cameos.

Brown, who won the 2024 Repco Supercars Championship in Adelaide earlier this month, made his NASCAR Cup Series debut in Sonoma in June.

The Queenslander impressed on debut with Richard Childress Racing, stunning with the third-fastest time in practice, before his weekend was undone by electrical gremlins. Brown left a lasting impressing on RCR, who wanted another chance with the Aussie star.

Speaking on the latest episode of Supercars' Drivers Only podcast, Brown said he is hopeful of making two NASCAR starts in 2025.

“Hopefully two NASCAR races. That’s the plan," Brown said.

“I’ll say one, but hopefully two if the car’s available.”

Should Brown secure a cameo, he will race against the driver he replaced at Triple Eight Race Engineering, Shane van Gisbergen. Van Gisbergen will make his full-time debut in the Cup Series with Trackhouse Racing in 2025.

Notably, Brown is keen to race on the streets of Chicago, with the event falling the weekend before the NTI Townsville 500 next July.

There are road course races at Circuit of the Americas (March 2), Mexico City (June 15), Chicago (July 6), Sonoma (July 13) and Watkins Glen (August 10). Supercars events clash with all races bar COTA and Chicago.

“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,” Brown added.

“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.”

Brown will commence his 2025 Supercars campaign at the opening round in Sydney on February 21-23. Tickets are on sale now.
