I noticed a slight tapping noise for the first minute after starting up today. its only faint and its quite fast. and seems to get faster when I put the pedal down a bit. Sorry for the brief rundown but it's all I got.
Anyone got any ideas?

What engine?
How old is the car?
Usually low oil, or worn lifters.
