есть статья... но на англицком. но всетаки вот текст:
Lamborghini Unipart-Countach QVX

No Lamborghini had ever officially raced under their name, several private parties had entered Lamborghini's in races, but never with any success though.
In 1985, David Jolliffe, the Lamborghini importer in Britain, which was Portman, decided to use a modified Countach LP5000S for racing in Group B, but the Countach wasn't built in sufficient numbers to allow its entry in the suitable Groups.
This didn't worry Jolliffe much, he then started building a completely new car to Group C regulations. He received a Countach QV engine with a 5.7-Liter displacement, which was modified at the factory under the directions of Luigi Marmiroli and used the data withdrawn from the victorious marine engines. This engine was coupled to a Hewland VG-C race transmission, and pumped out a promissing 650 to 700 Bhp.
Jolliffe had the chassis made by Spice Engineering, and CC Racing Developments, actually CC Motorsports in Kirbymooreside, England, entered the car in the 1986 World Championship with Tiff Needell and Mauro Baldi as the drivers of this black monster.
But the big problem was money, only one sponsor could be found for this project, Unipart, Britain's biggest spare parts factory, would support the Countach QVX, as it was officially called, to promote Unipart's new high-performance oil 'Unipart Supreme'. The car made a promissing debut in April 1985, and ran a few races without any success, but the money soon ran out and the Countach QVX disappeared.
It would certainly be able to do better, because it was very close to the Jaguar that actually won the World Championship in Group C, only the Lamborghini powered car was more powerfull.

Lamborghini Countach Rain-X Race car

Yes, somebody has used a Countach to go racing !
This heavily modified Lamborghini Countach was based on a 25th Anniversary edition, because this was the the most apropriate version to built a race car from. The standard rear spoiler was replaced by a racing type unit, which was completely adjustable, the air intakes behind the doors are redesigned to allow a better air-flow into the engine compartment. This V-12 was reworked to produce over 550 Bhp, combined with a lowered suspension and 18 inch rims with racing slicks, this car was a real performer.
The side glass windows were replaced by plexi panels and just behind the doors, in front of the air intakes, two race-type fuel cells were mounted with racing fillers. The front hood now incorporated an air-extractor and the front spoiler was drastically lowered to obtain downforce at high speeds, a top speed wasn't published on this specific model, but without most of the creature comforts in the interior, just one race bucket, and the glass normally used, this one should be able to attain more than 350 Km/h. No official information was found on this car, but I did locate a 1/24th plastic model kit from Fujimi. The finish was rather good and as a display model it was very suitable, but unfortunately the car was in fact only a standard 25th Anniversary model with the special Rain-X decals included. To really make the car look like the exact race car you would need to rework the entire front spoiler and make small alterations to the rear wing.
