Former Lamborghini test driver Valentino Balboni talks about and drives the Countach

[Eudemon]

A number of you may remember a clip from an old Jeremy Clarkson video (yes it's that long ago!) where a Lamborghini Diablo drives towards him at speed and then brakes to a stop directly in front of him. He then introduces that the man behind the wheel is Valentino Balboni (though it always sounded like Bilbao to me for some reason?), gets into the car and then is taken on one of the scariest drives he's ever been on. (it's a brilliant video and shows off some serious driving skill from Balboni, look it up if you haven't seen it)

 

Anyway this legend of Lamborghini recently did a video about the Countach and if you're a fan of supercars and/or Lamborghini, it is definitely worth a watch, and especially a listen. :cool:

Check this too, I think I've posted it before, but who cares

"Materially, I don't own any Lamborghini, but from an emotional and passionate viewpoint, I feel I own them all."
