Default Big Transmission Clunk Going from park to drive, normal?

When i put the vehicle from park to drive you can really feel it engage, it jerks the whole car, its like a huge clunk when it engages, i dont know if thats normal for a corvette but ive never felt anything shift the whole car to engage to drive before in anything else ive driven. There arent any codes and the trans temps is always under 200.

i should say that i have a p0113 code, i just read that it might have something to do with it cause it changes the air fuel ratio or something and affects torque, no idea if its related but they both started about the same time.

if the idle rpm were too high, it could cause that
