In the end, the overfill was of no real consequence because there has been no long term damage (thus far).

In the end, big boy rules apply and it was my responsibility.
Professional or not, the responsibility is THEIRS, not yours.

I don't care what shop this is. You can keep it a secret till the day you die, but you need to admit it is THEIR responsibility and screw up, not yours.

You didn't change the oil, it's not your job to figure out if they did theirs or not.

Beyond that, you're very lucky it didn't do more harm. Overfilling too much + track events often results in spun bearings from aeration of oil.. trust me, I've done it myself on a borrowed car at the track.
