=Erebus Motorsport=
==2018==
Brown was named as a Supercars Endurance Cup co-driver, partnering Anton de Pasquale with Erebus Motorsport, where he immediately showed his elite driving ability throughout the 3 race series. He continued to make solid progress in his Dunlop Super2 Series landing P6 in the 2018 Driver's Championship with Eggleston Motorsport.
==2019==
Again partnering with Anton de Pasquale at Erebus Motorsport in the Supercars championship, Brown's talent was on show finishing P2 behind Craig Lowndes and ahead of Garth Tander in the Co-driver Race, taking his first podium in the series. Furthermore, Brown also accepted a drive in the inaugural S5000 series, competing alongside former F1 driver Rubens Barrichello.
==2020==
Brown began 2020 with a multi year signing with Erebus Motorsport (Penrite Racing), that would see him compete in the Supercars series as a co-driver to David Reynolds in 2020, before becoming a full time driver for the team from 2021. The Supercars Enduro Cup was reduced to a single race at Bathurst for 2020, where Brown and Reynolds finished P15 due to engine issues.
==2021==
Brown performed strongly in his first full-time Supercars season, achieving his first Supercars podium with second place in Race 22 at Sydney. He went on to score a maiden Armor All Pole Position the next weekend, starting in P1 for Race 23, again at Sydney Motorsport Park, but had to wait until Race 28 to claim his first Supercars race win. A stunning drive saw the Red Bull Australia drivers pressure Brown, but he held his nerve for become the 82nd driver to win an ATCC/Supercars race. He is the first rookie driver to win a Supercars race since 2013, when Scott McLaughlin and Chaz Mostert both took victories in their first full-time season.

Brown had a mixed season in his second full time Supercars season, only achieving a single podium at the first race at Sandown. He would also fail to start the last race at Pukekohe, after being involved in a major accident with Mark Winterbottom. He would finish 14th in the championship.
== 2023 ==
Brown would improve massively in the first year in Gen3 machinery, compared to the previous year, with four wins and four pole positions. In August, Will Brown announced his departure from Erebus to join Triple Eight, replacing the NASCAR bound Shane van Gisbergen.{{Cite news |last=Pavey |first=James |date=16 August 2023 |title=Brown in, van Gisbergen out at Triple Eight |url=https://www.supercars.com/news/brown-in-van-gisbergen-out-at-triple-eight/ |work=Supercars}} He would finish fifth in the standings.
