IMO anything under 10T is pretty much unusable and you'd better be prepared to cut comms and replace brushes every 3 runs. The RPM's and heat they generate require a lot of maintenance.
Most major sites are still offering 10-12 t brushed motors, here's a couple I found lower than that:
Team Checkpoint is still offering down to 5T brushed motors (for touring car). Tower has a Hara edition 6T for $19
Our LHS owner has a case full of 10T and under used motors for sale, PM me if you want his contact info

For bashing 10T brushed motors are fine if you can drive. I've had a 10x2 brushed in my AWD rallycar for years and it has worked fine and the car is very controllable.
