I really see no need for this. You're not going to be doing burnouts with the car cold. I've never known anyone to pull up to the light with a cold car. Everybody I know gets the car up to temp. So to me it's really totally unneeded.
Agreed I would prefer not to even fire the motor dead cold.
You live in Georgia, I live in Ontario Canada, it gets cool in October and late September. Race fuel is an expensive way to warm up the car, but I agree on the trans it may not be necessary, but plenty of guys up here warm the oil on there motors up here in the late months.
