Completely normal. Once warmed up it gets better.

Motul gear300 trans fluid fixed this for me. Even at -25f it shifts well initially. My ebrake on the other hand..

Still having 330 hp would not matter. A shot TOB would be the same at any hp level. And a shot TOB would be the same regardless of weather.
