Why does my BRAKE light on the dash cluster come on after WOT?

Turns out it needed some more brake fluid. I poured some in after I bought some fresh DOT 3 (and 4) approved stuff, and since then I haven't seen the light come on.

Just an update. A buddy and I installed the new front pads, and I was really surprised with how simple and easy it was to do......****. With air tools and a C clamp (forgot what size, but I'd guess 4-6 inches is big enough) it was almost as easy as changing oil.
