Hot brakes

[kimlinh]

After a short drive the brakes on my newly restored Model A are very hot. There is some drag when I turn the wheels over when the car is on jack stands but not much( very little). I use the brakes when I take the short drive but not much. The brakes work very well. My question is - is it normal for the drums to get hot to the touch? My modern car does not get hot taking the same trip.
