I remember some tree hugger dipshit in a drivers ed video saying that you shouldn't let your car warm up because the extra exhaust that's expelled while you're not driving is bad for the environment. They were saying, just start it and go. We all know this is a bunch of bullshit. All cars, carbed or not, run better while at operating temp. I think the lesson here is that sometimes things that children get told in school are just not true and children need to be taught that they can sometimes be smarter than their teachers. Anyone who has a very basic understanding of cars knows that they need to warm up before driving.
