ABS failure only on track

Do you use different wheels/tires on the street vs. track? If so, are the tires different sizes? Maybe the difference in wheel/tire speeds (caused by different tire sizes) are confusing the ABS computer.
probably sounds like the sensor fault/damage might be wat i need to fix.

The ABS computer is quite good. It doesn't mind different front and rear diameter tires very much. I'd be surprised if this was the issue, but I can't say for sure.

Understood... I was just trying to think of something that would cause this issue to be seen on the track, but not on the street.

Maybe if the signal from a dirty / damaged ABS sensor is weak and then the geometry change from static high cornering loads moves one of the rear ABS sensors a little farther away from the reluctor ring?

What year? We had ours in the 2006 fail a year or so ago. Turned out to be the control unit. Now it activates to easily.

FWIW, my car behaves fine under braking with no ABS 
If you don't mind having to modulate manually to prevent lockup...
