| About Us |
Nigel Rees (MD Global Sports Development Ltd and GSD RaceDyn) gained an honours degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1975. He raced a wide range of single seaters from 1973 to 1996, including FF2000 in the USA. He has held senior positions in Engineering, Manufacturing and Telecommunications, living in the UK, USA, Japan and Singapore. Now resident in Pangbourne, Berks., Nigel has also run his own businesses in Vehicle Dynamics, Motorsport Sponsorship and GPS / Satellite Navigation.
During 1982, Nigel developed a full Vehicle Dynamics Software Suite for race cars. During 1983, Nigel and Chris Groves launched the GEOSCAN service, successfully analysing and improving more than 200 cars over the next few years, including F1(Williams Honda), F3000, F3, Can Am, Group C , FF2000, FF and BTCC cars, including Historic cars, eg Lotus 16 (front engine 1959 F1), Chevron B8, BRM P154 CanAm, McLaren M6 etc..
In 1986, Nigel sold Geoscan to Chris Groves, but retained primary rights to the software and engineering content. In parallel with his telecommunications career, Nigel has always continued to provide Vehicle dynamics consultancy to a small number of key clients, particularly in F3000, including notable successes with Pier Luigi Martini and Luis Sala in F3000 in 1986.
During 2009, Nigel decided to expand his Vehicle Dynamics activities – ‘I just get so much enjoyment from working with and improving racing cars!’
