Great catch!!! What rpm were you turning before shifting? Glad this turned out to your good. It's hard, if not impossible, to lose a dry sump belt at speed, and not pick up a bearing.

Thanks... according to the GPS, I was running 94 mph. Third gear at 94 mph calculates out to 6,500 rpm. As soon as the light came on I let off the gas... slipped it in neutral, and turned the engine off. The early warning saved my engine for sure.
