Did you connect the bottom drain valve of the Catch can to something or just leave it closed and check it once in a while?

works well, not a perfect solution to stupid AOS, but will prevent big plumes of smoke if AOS sucks it in. Hasn't collected much oil yet, will check it again after 3 days at NJMP.

I do not have it drain into the oil sump. I'm not sure of a good way to do that.

Don't.
Drain it to the exhaust, same as we've done on race cars and race bikes for decades.

The idea is that under normal operation, no liquid oil is present, only vapor. The only time anything would be draining out the bottom would be if something goes wrong, so it's not like you're oiling down the people behind you (though i'd be lieing if I said I never did on a superbike, Haha)

Whats the point of the catch can then? To throttle the collected oil back into the exhaust?

Yes.... sorta.
The catch can is to contain it. But if you don't want to check it and empty it regularly, you gotta get rid of it somehow.
No track will allow you to just drain that to the ground, but we've been venting/ draining to the exhaust for a very long time.
We're not talking about more than a drop of oil here and there. If you're getting more than that, something's wrong. And we're also not taking about pumping that oil through the motor and saturating it with fuel, as you suggested in your post before you edited it.
