How do I know it was a CD drive motor? I'm one of the guys who took a CD drive apart, raided the motors, and wound up using it for the robot drive.
Now, when you dig up that R/C car, raid the gearbox. The more R/C cars, the more gearboxes. Then you can tweak the powering/gearing to suit your motors.

All I can say is wow. That's freakin' epic.
I'm really excited about this project now. I'll get crackin' soon, HOPEFULLY Tuesday I get to mill out a frame for this robot and get some kind of prototype running by the end of the week.
