If the engine was running, and it was indeed the oil light (there are a lot of icons near there), he should see his dealer. He may have a faulty oil pressure switch. If he did not also get limp mode, it was probably not the low oil pressure indicator. I would suspect the "Nanny" indicator, which indicates the VSS kicked in. Easy to do when accelerating in tight turns, etc.

I had a similar problem during spyderfest. Started Spyder, oil light stayed on and check engine scrolled. Turns out it was a faulty oil pressure switch. Cowtown did the repair and I've had no problems since.
