I've seen more documented issues with the ABS system on dedicated track cars then anything else.
I agree. I think I am the first member on this forum to custom install brake ducting. I am not trying to steal anyone's thunder, please correct me if I am wrong.

And I can confirm that I did not experience ice mode on the track after installing the ducts. However, I also upgraded to CarboTech pads and Castrol SRF fluid.
