RADIO SHACK LAMBORGHINI R/C CAR
This is a long page with at least 19 images on it; dial-up users please allow for plenty of load time.
You have no chance to survive make your time.
The Lamborghini is an R/C vehicle designed to travel somewhat rapidly and at the same time be easy to operate.
The interior is very well detailed.
It comes with the smallish handheld remote control with a "steering wheel" and a forward/backward trigger.
SIZE
To use the Lamborghini R/C Car, install four AA cells in the car itself and two AA cells in the remote (see directly below), and THEN you can be Metal Thrashing Mad...O WAIT!!! There I go thinking about the metal band Anthrax again.
Screw the included antenna into the receptacle for it on the top of the Tx (remote control).
Do not use tools, but screw it in as tightly as you can with your fingers.
On the right side of the Tx, you'll see a small black slide switch. Slide it forward.
On the car's undercarriage, you'll see a small red slide switch a couple of inches forward of the right rear tire. Slide this swich toward the rear of the car.
Place the Lamborghini R/C Car on the ground so that the front faces away from you.
Pull the trigger on the Tx, and the Lamborghini R/C Car should now race away from you.
To steer, turn the steering wheel on the Tx as you would turn the steering wheel in a real car. That is, turning the wheel to the left will make the car turn left and vice-versa.
To back up, push the trigger forward (the opposite direction of how you'd shoot a gun).
Congratulations!!! You're now Metal Thrashing Mad....ummm...there I go thinking about the metal band Anthrax again!!!
For additional instructions & tips on how to drive the Lamborghini R/C Car, please read the instructional material that comes with the product.
To neutralise (turn off) the car and the Tx, use the same switches I just described, but slide them in the opposite direction.
To change the batteries in the Lamborghini R/C Car, turn the vehicle upside-down. Unhook, lift away, and remove the battery door, carry it to a freeway overpass, and lob it over the side so that a bus hits it on the way down and destroys it...O WAIT!!! YOU'LL NEED THAT!!! So just set it aside instead.
Remove and dispose of or recycle the four used AA cells from the compartment.
Insert four new AA cells into the compartment, orienting each one so that it's flat (-) negative end faces a spring for it in each chamber.
Place the battery door back on, and gently "snap" it into place.
To install the two AA cells in the Tx, use a small Phillips screwdriver to unscrew & remove the screw holding the battery door on (which BTW is located on the left side of the "handle"), and set it aside.
Remove the battery door, take it to a bridge over deep water (the Golden Gate Bridge would be ideal; however, the Juneau-Douglas Bridge would also suffice here), and throw it over the side so that it goes "blub blub blub" all the way to the bottom of Gastineau Channel with all of the bowling balls that were lobbed over that bridge in the 1950s and 1960s...O WAIT!!! YOU'LL NEED THAT!!! So just set it aside instead.
Remove and dispose of or recycle the pair of used AA cells from the compartment.
Insert two new AA cells into the compartment, orienting each one so that it's flat (-) negative end faces a spring for it in each chamber.
Place the battery door back on, and insert & gently tighten that little screw.
Aren't you glad that you didn't throw that battery door over the side of the Juneau-Douglas Bridge now?
This is what the Juneau-Douglas Bridge looks like...or what it lookED like anyway before it was replaced in 1976.
And this is what the bridge looks like now.
The Lamborghini is meant to be used as a toy in a dry area outdoors, not as a flashlight meant to be carried around, rained on, thrashed, trashed, and abused, so I won't try to drown it in the toliet tank, bash it against a steel rod or against the concrete floor of a patio, let any of our six "citty" "kats" go to the litterbox on it or let my mother's big dog's ghost lift his leg on it, run over it with a 450lb Celebrity motorised wheelchair, leave it outside in the rain, stomp on it, use a medium claw hammer in order to bash it open to check it for candiosity, fire it from the cannoñata, drop it down the top of Mt. Erupto (I guess I've been watching the TV program "Viva Piñata" too much again - candiosity is usually checked with a laser-type device on a platform with a large readout (located at Piñata Central aka Party Central), with a handheld wand that Langston Lickatoad uses, or with a pack-of-cards-sized device that Fergy Fudgehog uses; the cannoñata (also located at Piñata Central) is only used to shoot piñatas to piñata parties away from picturesque Piñata Island, and Mt. Erupto is an active volcano on Piñata Island), send it to the Daystrom Institute for additional analysis, or perform other indecencies on it that a flashlight might have to have performed on it.
It was also a Christmas gift, so I would not have performed any damaging or potentially destructive tests on it even if it were a flashlight.
So this section of the web page will be ***SIGNIFICANTLY*** more bare than this section of the web page on a page about a flashlight.

Another video that shows the Radio Shack Lamborghini R/C Car being driven outdoors -- and slightly terrorising a kitty cat in the process (he probably thought that the little car was a rat or some other squeaky creature that he didn't want to F with).
That music you hear are the songs, "Metal Thrashing Mad" (about driving a car rather fast!) and, "Across the River" (used primarily as 'filler') by...o cummon you've just ***GOT*** to know this one considering that I enjoy listening to groups such as Kraftwerk, The Cars, Cheap Trick, Sammy Hagar, Van Halen, computer demo zax, and such...
...if you guessed Hozay Feliaciano, SNIETY MIKOLAJ ZA POMOCA SZCZOTECZKI DO ZEBÓW, KTÓRY SPADL W TOALECIE, NIE!
It's Anthrax you silly goose!!!
I added, "***NSFYE***" (Not Safe For Your Ears) because not everybody who comes to YouTube to watch R/C cars is a metalhead and would appreciate the unwanted earwhipping.

Taking my Radio Shack Lamborghini R/C Car out for a little Tuesday drive; my Rechargeable Mini Keychain Video Recorder was affixed to the top to allow some 1st person video.
Conditions at drive time were mostly sunny with a temperature of 70°F (21.1°C).
The antenna on the receiver (inside the vehicle body) appears to be missing or broken; I cannot allow it to go more than 1.5 to 2 meters from the Tx (remote control).
{Edit 8:57pm PDT 08-19-14}: I disassembled the unit to look for a broken or missing antenna; all is it should be. I used known-new batteries for both the car and its Tx, so I'm at a loss to explain the extremely limited range.
There is no audio (sound) because the camera I used has a busted mic (microphone).
