Brake fluid melts paint...they probably change the fluid out a lot on that car
If it's even just an occasional track car, bleeding at least the dirty fluid out should be part of the preparation for each event. Plus, I've heard/read where sometimes tiny amounts of fluid can weep out when everything down there gets really hot. Not something you'd expect from a purely street driving basis.
