Parse IF using an expression

I have a Type ID stuck with the Title.  I know I can get to this by parsing, but it would require me to breakout all sorts of subsets.  I wish to avoid this.

 

Is there a way to write an expression that says. IF [GROUP]='01' THEN PARSE([TITLE], ([A-Z]{2}\d{3}).*$) ELSE [TITLE] ENDIF.  

 

START POINT.

GroupType IDTitle 
01 LH001 - Cervelo - Fast Bikes 

 

DESIRED OUTPUT

 

GroupType IDTitle 
01LH001Cervelo - Fast Bikes 

 

Again, I know I can use the Parse tool to do this....but I would prefer to use an Expression.

@afv2688  It works.  Sorry.  I went back and forth.  I actually had 90% of this formula, I forgot to add the '$1' to refer to the group.  THANKS.
