Default cel came on durring hard driving then when away

so i was driving around earlier with one of my buddies messing around. my CEL came on after bringing it to red line. i turned off my car turned it back on the the CEL went away i brought it to red line again after it seemed fine and no CEL. should i worry or just forget about it?. i also wired in a vtec light bc i thought vtec wasnt engaging and the light dosnt turn on. i double checked my wring bc i thought it might be that but its right. its a d15b7 mini me z6 head. thanks in advance guys

Likely a misfire, did the CEL blink?
Could also be VTEC oil pressure sensor. Maybe you ran low on oil? Since it's already gone it's hard to say.
