A new dimension in sound
Valentino Balboni
V alentino Balboni was born on May 13, 1949 in Casumaro, Italy, less than 7 miles from Ferruccio Lamborghini's birthplace. He is the former chief test driver of Automobili Lamborghini SpA. Serving the company for over 40 years, he is regarded as one of the best Lamborghini's experts in the world.
How Valentino got hired by Lamborghini is a story that involves his parish priest Alfredo Pizzi, who one day accompanied him and other boys playing football in the pitch of the oratorio in Sant'Agata Bolognese.
Arriving near the Lamborghini factory, Valentino began to observe a car transporter truck unloading some of the Miura bodies from the Bertone atelier. After asking the priest to stay there a bit more, Valentino got acquainted with a worker and the porter of the plant. He intrigued them with his passion for cars and so they advised him to apply for a job at the company. One week later he was hired as a teenager by the founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini.
After starting as a mechanic apprentice, he was eventually asked to test-drive the newly built cars alongside Bob Wallace.
