Question

After a flat out blast yesterday (Indicated 160 with 7000rpm)
backed off, and a short while later the 'Check Engine' light flashed on the dash!
Obviously, shat myself but nothing wrong with car, so let it idle for a bit, then turned the ignition off, and started it again,the light had disappeared! Just wondered if anyone else has experienced said problem??? Ps wasn't running hot, or overboosting
