Yes, it is recommended. ABS pumps much faster and with more control than most, if not all drivers. Modern cars also re-balance braking between front/rear and left/right.
Anti-lock brakes are forbidden in Formula 1 in order to make it harder for the drivers. If ABS were reducing how fast a car could decelerate, that regulation wouldn't exist!
ABS can perform worse on loose surfaces like gravel or deep snow, where best braking is provided by locking the wheels. However, steering control on those surfaces while braking is better with ABS.

That's actually not a 100% true. Professional drivers don't pump, they attempt to brake just at the threshold of locking in order to get the most out of their available traction. It's a fairly difficult technique that is dependent on experience more than anything, so for the average trackday racer ABS is fine enough.
