Default Nails on a chalk board sound...

I know this is gunna be hard to understand over the internet but this is all I can tell that is happening...



When I'm flooring it either a dead stop or a roll to 9k when it goes from about 7800ish to 9k it makes this screach like nails on a chalkboard... I can only hear it when the top is up though... It almost sounds like a belt on one of those REALLY beat up cars that squeal. But it only happens at 7800ish-9k fully floored. Any help (if any possible) is greatly appreciated. Sorry for the lack of description.

Thanks,
Nick

The thing is, my car is warrantied and I don't want to take it to honda saying when I redline the shit out of my car it makes this noise... My dealer said they could cancel my warranty if there are signs of abuse... I don't know if they would consider it abuse by reving it but they could be overly strict on the rule (anything for them to cancel it is fair game to them) and take it away... I just need some help here to see if anyone else has had this problem yet...

sounds like belt slipping. i'd simply tell them at about 7000rpm and up you hear a belt slipping noise. dont tell them you're all out flooring it. simply tell them that little bit of info.
