Under normal conditions, one can expect N1 rotation at about 18% to 20% or N2 rotation.

CFM places no tailwind limitation regarding engine starting.

The EEC monitors the engine for impending hot starts while on the ground.

I do remember in a former life, during intermediate stops, we motored the RB211 until EGT was below a certain value.
