Default Thunder hill

So the group I was running with was great, weather was fantastic
but I did have some issues

Car ran great the first session but it spit some oil out of the
valve cover connection and catch can vent... found the connection
on the valve cover loosened.. tightened it and cleaned things up

Out for the second session and things seemed good until the end
and noticed a bunch of oil on the back window (catch can is just
below the window).... car was really spitting oil out of the catch can vent
Did some checking around and figured my compression kick up
does not like the venting system I have been running for 10 years

Called it a day and weekend as I did not want to catch the car
on fire.... fire bad

Will look into at catch can with some baffles etc
Ran the car for 2000 miles with no issues.. one autocross
but not buzzing at 7000 rpm plus for a lot of the track until now

Still better than going to work
