I originally came to this game from RR2, and when I started, immediately learned to race with no assists. In that much older game, it was guaranteed to be at least 15% faster across the board.

I have read in some places that this isn't the case in RR3 - thoughts? Is "no assists" always faster, provided you can get around a course under control?
