I noticed tonight that my cat has this bumpy (small bumps) but bright red it seems all the way up her spine starting with a huge cluster at her tail. At first I was thinking - she ran a bit behind in her flea medicine and she was scratching quite a bit - but that's been taken care of - no flea dirt no noticeable little fleas - nothing - but the rash has appeared rather over night it seems - any ideas??

By taken care of, you mean you have applied a flea med?? When? If they are broken out from a flea allergy, it will take a few days befoe the rash will disappear.

Many cats are allergic to fleas and one bite can cause a reaction of little red bumps. I'd go over her with a flea comb to be sure there are no fleas on her.

Or take her to the vet and have him look at her.
