No, they are internal Red Hat builds and are not publicly released. 
CentOS release every kernel that Red Hat releases. Typically Red Hat 
will only release a kernel when a security issue makes it pertinent to 
do so and in the mean time there are often a number of internal bug fix 
releases that don't get released to customers or the public.

FasTrack typically contains trivial bug fixes that will get rolled into 
the next update set, but are made available early via the FasTrack 
channel to those that wish to consume them:
