what does max amps really mean?

[no mods]

i have a neu motor 1515/2.5d and on the enclosed documentation there is a value stated as such: Max. Amps (A) 20 sec. = 80* am i to believe this motor will only draw 80 amps? or is there something i am not seeing

does anyone know what this value is really supposed to mean? the reason i ask is because i hear that often times motors will draw well over 150+ amps upon a dead hook launch and braking so i am kinda confused
