“It was one of my first drives in a race car, and I set quick times, so it will be good to see them again.
“I’m in the F2000 for half a day, and then switch over to the Pro Mazda for the second half, get the feel for the two, and give me a good idea of where the categories are at, and what I want to do for next year.
“Racing in America definitely interests me, it would be an exciting place to go and race. There and Europe are probably the two top places.”
Parsons will return to AsiaCup Series action at Sepang on November 7-9.
