I don't track, but occasionally will find a deserted back road and practice threshold braking for 10 minutes or so. The car should be able to lock the wheels.
Per earlier reply, I believe I do feel pulsing, just not as hard as the NC Miata I am used to. I autocrossed the BRZ twice a while ago before I flushed the fluid and changed the pads myself. I recall getting into ABS then but I am not sure how “strongly” the pulsing felt.

FWIW, if I just jump on the brakes in the parking lot, I can actually smell my tires briefly (with the accompanying pedal pulsing)

The ABS light doesn’t go on when ABS is kicked in, right?
