In stages where there is a fixed difficulty, it does not matter how much upgrades you have applied, the goals/ targets remain the same.

In the other stages with variable difficulty you can lower it anyway by losing multiple times, untill you reach a bottom value for the PR you have.

In the end it is all about how skilled you are without assists. I'm guessing that if you find a stage too hard at recommended PR it is either your lack of skill or your use of assists. So you are correct that the fixed goals will still be the same, but bot slowing still has a major effect. If you go into that event with bots at a difficulty 7 after the event they will be difficulty of 8. But if you go into the event with bots at difficulty of 2 after the event they will be a difficulty of 5. So while the difficulty still goes up the racer doing bot slowing will get slighlty easier bots in the following races.
