To the fandom user above:

Braking assist (even if it's on low) is going to slow you down dramatically. You had better train yourself to drive with no brake assists as soon as you can. Once you learn the braking points in each circuit, it becomes very very easy and your lap times will improve dramatically! It's just a one time investment: learning the braking points (of course you'll have to adjust them slightly for each car) for each circuit and you'll save yourself tons of gold and time and sweat in Special Events and Gauntlets. Of course, you'll do much better in WTTT and Online Multiplayer, needless to say.

The only assist which won't slow you down (provided you're not allowed to cut corners as in Online Multiplayer, WTTT and No Off Track Special Event Races) is the Steering Assist. In fact, steering assist can vastly improve your lap times as it keeps cueing you to the fastest lines in turns and it constantly smooths out your steering input in turns so you're less likely to skid in turn entrances and exits.
