I need some electrical advice Please

Well I got the car cleaned up and took it for a spin and all systems seemed A OK until the Volt gauge started to peg clean off the chart. When I pushed in the clutch and took my foot off the gas I could at least see the needle again

So I tried flipping the lights on and off just to see what would happen and the gauge went back to normal........for a little while. Then it did it again. Tried the light switch again, that didn't help, so I turned the car off then on and it was ok for a little while. By now I figured I better make a bee-line for the house before I fry something bigtime.
I checked all the wires I could find on the car and could not find anything obvious. The battery was new last year. The alternator is a Jones Racing one wire. Everything else works on the car. The car is spf 2218.

Any and all ideas are greatly appreciated

JB
