Automated braking that you couldn't turn completely off would truly suck at a track day.
Automated braking sounds like it could even be a big handicap at autocross if it can't always distinguish between other traffic and tall pylons.
I wouldn't want it just for the risk potential of its interference when merging into a travel lane on a busy Interstate or when moving over on the same kind of road such as to permit emergency vehicles and/or faster traffic to pass me, or perhaps to avoid hitting road debris. I really don't want any instantaneous thoughts of 'WTF just broke on my car' getting in the way ever, let alone during times/situations like those.
