Hard Clunk

I find after i areally cold night or alot of snow, the first time when i start to more i have to give here alot more gas and drag the clutch. Right when it starts moving there is this hard Clunk then nothing. never again. Unless it snows again. So im thinking its the wheels freezing to pavement or something like that. What u guys think.

Thats your brake pads freezing to your rotor, when you move forward you break the bond. Dont worry about it. Every little noise that a car makes doesn't mean theres something wrong.

It's minor surface rust bonding them together. I've asked this a long time ago.
