Default Uh oh. I made a mistake

SO a mustand was pulled up next to me and was revving its engine. Being a man, and KNOWING I would lose, I just could NOT give up the race. SO i raced him, and kept up alright, but afterwards my check engine light came on. The beetle is at rest for tonight, so Hopefully its off in the morning. BUT what do you guys think it is?

My educated guess would be an O2 sensor.
