Cup career※
Parsons made his debut in 1972, making the show at North Wilkesboro Speedway with a 19th place qualifying effort. Parsons then survived the "tough short track." And ended up with a top-10 in his first career race-9th.
Parsons stepped it up——to eighteen races in 1973, "when he finished 30th in the points standings." Driving for car owner, "Bill Seifer," Parsons recorded an unprecedented six top-tens. That included a career best 7th place in the July race at Daytona. The other top-tens were a trio of ninths and "a duo of tenths." However, the news was not all good for Parsons. Even with six top-tens, Parsons' team struggled to finish races. In fact, in eighteen starts, Parsons' team only finished seven of them.
