No, you'll need the overflow. When your system gets hot, the fluid will expand and it needs a place to go (conversely, it needs to be sucked back in when it cools down). The overflow has to be there. You can't just let it leak out onto the ground and under your tires.

I was looking for the canton overflow I saw but I can't find it -- not even on their site.

Edit - I've been meaning to ask you -- what is that pictured in your avatar?
