Warm up the engine, then let it set for 5-10 minutes, pull out the dipstick, clean it off and then put it back in. When you pull it back out all of the diamonds should have oil in them.

your owner's manual tells you how to check your oil level. this is something that is VERY important that you do. you should do it at least once a week.

and yes, you hit the "idiot" limiter. next time, dont try to redline a car that is not yet properly warmed up.

also whoever, said vtec kicks in at 5750 isn't right. it's just about 6000rpm or so.
