Well the whole idea is that I'd like to enable ABS if I can since I can always disable it via fuses or just uncoupling the ABS manifold harness. Also, my current budget isn't going to like getting a standalone right now...

I know driver assists like traction control and ABS get a bad rap but I would like the option to run the assist or disable it if I choose. Say I bite the bullet and get some Hoosiers for a series but I'm unfamiliar with the track layout (with autocross that's always). If I make three runs and push a little too hard on the fourth and slam the brakes in a moment of panic / n00bness to avoid a person / cone / wall, I've just flatspotted my tires and will have to shave them to even them out, or worse: have to throw them away...

It's definitely a good thing to have the option to run ABS and be able to choose not to.
