Hello Norm Helmkay!

I enjoyed your article on sleeve valve engines. I have become a huge fan of 
the Napier Sabre over the past few years, so I wanted to follow up on your 
article.

You wrote that there are (were?) Sabres running in unlimited powerboats. Can 
you give me any details on this point? I would love to see or hear a Sabre in 
action! Better yet, my Walter Mitty fantasy is to help get one airborne at 
Reno...

Thanks in advance for any leads,
