I remember a long time ago that 20/20 (http://abcnews.go.com/onair/2020/2020Index.html) did a show on the Lamborghini Countach. They showed a crowd forming around a parked Countach and how difficult it is to drive it in reverse and things of that nature. Does anyone have any idea how to get a copy of that show? It would be cool if someone could digitize it for the net.

Damn, my neighbor was this really old guy but he died and he used to tape 20/20 episodes, he had like 300 tapes but when he kicked the bucket his kids shovelled all his crap into one big dumpster.

Not 20/20 but 60 minutes. I had a copy on VHS along time ago. I let someone borrow it and never got it back. I want it bad! It aired on 60 minutes in the mid 1980's maybe 1985 or 1986. Morley Safer took a ride with Valentino Balboni on the Autostada at 180 m.p.h. in a red Countach. "This is no special effect, this is 180 m.p.h." They also show Mr. Lamborghini drving a white Countach. Best video ever. Can anyone get old copies of 60 minutes?

you can see ride along video footage from 60minutes on the dvd at www.lambodvd.com
it's one of the best parts of the dvd, plus the sound is better than an old vhs copy, which i could never find
there's also an interview w/Valentino

i bought the dvd the day it came out on the lambo.com web page. i have watched it over 5 times and it is great. i just wish they showed the whole 60 minutes show but it is only a few minutes of the video. i also have collected several video clips on my pc that i would love to get on a dvd. some one needs to make a dvd with all the clips from the diffrent car shows and interviews so we all can enjoy these for the rest of our lifes. i have clips of balboni driving the Diablo, Murcielago and the Galldardo and would love to have them on dvd with any other shows that the lamborghini has made it on

racingflix.com is the site i think. i down load the videos into my laptop and it is at home so i do not have the address handy but i think that is it. they have a bunch of lambo clips. some do not work and others are in diffrent a language but the lamborghini sounds the same in italian as it does in english. they have some coutach stuff and a few gallardo clips and several murcielago clips. they take a while to download but some are 10 minutes long. you can buy a membership and connect faster but i just left them download over night two at a time till i got them all. i still think i am going to get the membership thogh because there is a lot of stuff on there that i would love to have. just curious someone mentioned some other videos and i have ordered a couple that i found after i bought the dvd. one is about the diablo and he aother is about lamborghini in general. the are vhs so no new stuff but it is still lambo. i have a book on the countach that tells you almost everything you could ever want to know about the car inside and out. anyone know of a book like this for the diablo or murcielago.

The history of the tv is a complicated one, involving the collaborated exercises of numerous inventors and the international joint ventures of masterminds over numerous decades. There were two essential rules that overlapped to process the first illustrations of the television; mechanic and electronic doctrines and a separate process on only electronic works. Eventually, mechanical exercises in television’s development would be vacated in privilege of the only electronic wholes. Tv is a globally used communicating intermediate for obtaining and communicating moving images. The TV has passed through numerous phases of growth, from the old black and white systems, to the gain of coloration, and now to the development of plasma, flat and high definition units. The phrase TV is descended from the Greek and Latin phrases tele (far sight) and visio (to see). Television discovered, in its earlier phases of development, a merger of visual and electronic engineerings to make, record and exhibit optical pictures. The television has been a popular communications receiver in places since the 1930s. Businesses and foundations as much as homes have utilized the device as a informant of entertainment and news. Since the seventies, the growth of compatible devices over the television has past leaps and bounds, through the usage of TV cassettes, DVDs and the hot Blu Ray Disks, TVs have oft been utilised to watch filmed material such as motion pictures. Genres of television programing insure a large form of types that entertain, inform, and modernize TV audiences.
