Normal for a car to roll up to 10mph at idle?
When I start my car from a cold start, it idle kind of high due to a cold engine @ around 1500rpm. Because of this, if I don't hold onto the brake it will roll on its own up to 10mph! 
Is that normal? What's the fix?
Once the car warmed up, it's fine & idle @ 650-700rpm.

mine does it too, perfectly normal
it's doing this because the car is in gear and the FITV is raising the rev's, therefore your engine is moving the car faster than it would if the FITV wasn't doing this. Its an odd byproduct of the car warming up.
