How long should you break in brushes for the following situations?

polorized springs

The lighter spring goes on the Negative side and this is done for more RPM. Most of the "Tuned" Stock Motors come with a + Red, - Green setup.
For more torque (like in a TC) a Red/Red spring combo works best in "Epic" Motors.

Stock motor can reach arround 74~76 degree celcius, but it is normal..
Yokomo guys said it is still ok until it reach 86 degree celcius, if over 86 degrees, it is overgearing...
I check the motor after each run with an infrared temp check, shaft drive car usually have a motor surface temp arround 74~76 degrees, and belt drive car usually 69~71 degrees.
Any input?? (23T stock... see if any different with the 27T)

I have a quick question. I checked my motor on my GFX, ran it at 3 Volts and got about 10 Amps. I then rebuilt it and cut the comm, checked it again and only got 9 Amps. I didn't replace the brushed, just cleaned them with a comm stick.
Is it normal to get less Amps after cutting the comm? I just got a comm lathe and wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong.
