What you are describing is a tranny issue. You're coming to a stop. Step on the gas pedal. The engine rev's up, then the tranny hooks up. and then you move.
Yes, exactly as you summarized it in the second part of your post. At least it’s how it feels to me too. I’ll still do a couple of hard stops tomorrow night and will update on the symptoms. I will definitely get a hold of the shop if it persists. Thanks for your help.

OK, so it is definitely not the brakes I don’t think. I went out just now and applied the brakes in a mild and hard fashion and the car did the same thing. It stood still for a second or two then hooked up and rolled forward. I captured it on video from a decent stop. I hope the trans isn’t messed up, I was trying to prolong the life of it by getting that fluid changed
