nordic trac motor?

[porch]

Howdy folks,
I found your forum today and ripped thru all the electric project threads... I aim to make a little "tractor" kart for my 6-yr old to drive on our very bumpy dirt road... maybe I'll use an old ATC frame or maybe weld up something simple and make my axles (have a good gearing shop nearby)....

I took apart a Nordic Trac and happy to see a 12Vdc motor that looks like a good trike/tractor motor. Anyone out there ever work with these motors?

peace, porch
(my wife calls me that cuz I'd rather be outside...)
