I was trying to find it in the 7110.65, but no joy. Basically I remember reading that turbines are assumed ready for departure when they get to the runway, and pistons are assumed to require a runup. Unless you're departing a class B, I'm pretty sure the controllers expected you to do your runup then get back to them.
