Most race cars do not have ABS because it would be illegal. Classes that do allow ABS usually assess a weight penalty for having the ABS because it is an advantage.

ABS is an advantage for any street or track car period. It will not make you stop in a shorter distance, but will allow for you to steer and to not lock the rear wheels under heavy braking.
