Reason I ask is that the CSG site includes this statement about the sprint pads: "Key development points also include ensuring that these friction materials are compatible with a wide range of tires (sport tires to racing slicks) and ABS or Traction Control ("TC") systems found on OE and motorsport applications."

A compound designed to accommodate the sudden release/grab of ABS actuation, such as CE2, which also happens to have longer life. Release characteristic has to be tuned and friendly to ABS. Some compounds will be "sticky" on release, opposite of how they may behave on application. If even CE2 is not sufficient for a user, other unnamed compounds are available on a case-by-case basis, but sufficient data will need to be presented to justify the use of unreleased compounds.
Generally speaking, it's better to your wallet to just learn to threshold rather than be fully ABS dependent at a club/casual level. In pro series that allow for ABS, you want to actually abuse the ABS to go faster, as the ABS is tunable and optimized to each condition. Setting up a Bosch motorsport ABS costs more than a brand new 86!
