The ACSL, also known as the "Lambo Lab," researches, invents, tests and manufactures carbon- fiber products to make Lamborghini cars faster, lighter, and more fuel-efficient. The lab also develops advanced composite structures for Boeing, Mitsubishi, Rocky Mountain bicycles, Callaway golf clubs, and others. A one-hour guided tour of the museum begins with an introduction to carbon fiber and composite materials. Then follow the revolutionary manufacturing techniques Lamborghini developed in Italy and Seattle. Also see the latest advanced carbon-fiber technologies, including Carbonskin, a leather-like soft carbon fabric used for car interiors, and Forged Composite, which replaces complex metal parts. The museum features bits and pieces of all sorts of Lamborghinis, including carbon components of production models, prototypes, and show cars—from the very first Countach engine bonnet to the Sesto Elemento chassis. This is a great opportunity to see the engineering, research, and science behind why Lamborghinis are fast and Boeing planes fly. Optional no-host lunch nearby. Limited to 12 people per tour.

As you step back in time with the exhibits, you are encouraged to interact with the machines of yesteryear. Whether you know a little or a lot about computers, our narrated tour will tell the story of how they have changed our lives, how technology has developed through the decades, and how computers will steer us into the future.
