Another problem!.

When I start my car from cold, I don't really let it warm up since i'm usually in a rush (i know bad right?)
Yesterday, I experienced a lack of power for the first time between 1st gear and 2nd gear I tried pressing for more gas (aka power) nothing happened so I didn't want to strip any gear I layed off and drove it and see if it would happen again. Thankfully it didnt but.... its a concern.

That is nothing to worry about. It is related to cold start enrichment.

But be good to your car and let it warm up for 30 seconds or so before you start moving.
