It has no ABS. If it did the stopping distances and time would be shorter.
It has very bad feel in the brakes then. Normally, if brakes are progressive and spot-on, ABS doesn't decrease braking distances. I remember a Zonda S out-braked an Enzo in a certain test (despite having smaller brakes) due to the fact it didn't have the intrusive ABS (hence it probably has very good feel in the brakes).
