Ok Nick here goes (mind you only once  )
Oil level in tank correct at start of race. As race goes on oil fills catch bottle from breather at top of engine just below carbs. We think that the oil is not returning from the sump to the tank quick enough so it overflows out of the breather and filling the catch bottle. The current breather pipe runs from the engine via a 6" rubber hose to a catch bottle that is lower than the breather opening. This we think is not helping. We are going to fit a Rob north type breather and run the breather pipe from it uphill to a catch bottle mounted at the rear of the outfit. We may also look at fitting a new oil pump. The current one is a +50 / +50 Triple Cycles item and he now offers a +30 / +50 which has a greater scavenge facility (30% higher flow, 50% higher scavenge).
