It is true that when the car detects wheel lock up, ABS will be triggered, however, when ABS is triggered the braking efficiency from that particular wheel/axle will be reduced (at least on dry surfaces) compared to the maximum braking that wheel/axle can generate using proper braking techniques. This adds to the stopping distance, which isn't desirable on the race track.
