Strange noise when starting?

Strange noise when starting?
Today on my way to the office i slightly bottomed out (passenger side front bumper) but i checked and all was fine. Then i came back to start the car and it made this very odd sound like it revved but sounded like a freight truck. I then drove and it was fine(nothing wrong at all). I then shut the car off and started it again and nothing it was perfect. So i went back out about an hour later and started and it did it again, I then shut it off and restarted and it was fine. But every time i let it sit and start it, it makes this odd noise(sounds like its revving but is very loud and distorted). Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bobby

It was actually the fan. When i bottomed out, i must have hit it hard enough to cause the radiator support to push up making the fan hit the shroud. So i pulled it back to factory spec and no noise or any other problems. thanks for the help guys.
