Could be the tranny(Or rearend), check the gear oil(level, color, consistency), you might even want to drain it and check for metal.

But dont worry to much, from the short story you told it sounds like it might have been the disc brakes scrubbing a little or you might not have had her completely in gear.(end of an On Ramp you were probably going for fourth. Four and Five are good about showing off imperfections.
