Default if it really bothers you, you can siphon it out from where the dipstick is

FWIW, we overfill during track events and we dont have any problems

Default thats because blow-by gases(air in engine block) is pumped into the intake

and burned in the combustion chambers. if you put it way too much(maybe .5liter), oil will be pumped out as well.
