Man, I had one. It was my favorite ever. It was so awesome. No one in the neighborhood had an rc car that was faster. I loved it. I had modified mine. I added small lights in side the head lamp housings so I could run it at night. So much fun. i miss it.

I had a red one back on 93 and that thing was awesome. I kept stripping out the gears in high gear so eventually it would only drive in low gear. I kept returning them to Toys R us for exchanges and eventually grew tired of doing it. I had the same problems with the Bandit way before that. The lambo is pretty rare today and can fetch some good coin in good shape,especially new.

talking about the glass case at toys r us.I had the twinn turbo hopper with the two Mitsubishi 540 motors one per wheel and better tires so it was faster than the Ferraris because it wasn't so low. one of my favorite days was taking it to the box track to beat up on the nikkos,and golden arrows. Tyco ruled rcs if you were under 15....

fun fact; my brother had a tyco lambo and it would spin the rear tire so fast in high gear with the vehicle on jack stands on the rear axle, that the tire will come off the rim! talk about a cleveland tire change :) also does anyone remember seeing the tyco contender? it was a 9.6 volt indy car looking thing? i thought maybe that was the fastest. what do i know i just have the typhoon so it will kick anythings ass (on flat smooth surface).

TheReal Cat Well real cat today is your lucky day. I would like to make you a substantial offer for that car. Now I'd be more than happy to triple your money so how does 24$ sound? Now think about that for a minute....You started with 8$ and can turn that around very quickly. As a matter a fact today is your lucky day, I'd be willing to bump it up to an even 30$ to swing the deal over the top for you. So that's a quick 20$ profit in a short amount of time, keep swinging deals like this and you will be a millionaire in no time at all. We can exchange emails and work out when you will be shipping the actual car to me. And of course I'd pay the shipping. Thank you and it's been a pleasure doing business with you.....

Tyco the best but radio shack also had some great rc as well, like the extreme machine 1997 first truck at RadioShack with two RS 550 Motors and the Mercedes-Benz CLK 2000 and the red arrow with RS 540 SH. I still love 90's toy grade the best maximum heat.
