I've done a mismash of the two actually. I've set the ESC brake level to the highest level i can (sort of) stay in control on a high grip surface, carpet with prepped slicks or nice dry astro. Then used EPA to tweak that further, if its wet, old tyres, dusty carpet etc.

(Full brakes on one of my 4wds was enough to get the car to flip. And full throttle was enough to keep it on the back wheels for the entire 20+ m of the back straight..................... hours of sketchy fun. Until the driveshafts started snapping)

And drag brake, not very much. But again, depends on the surface. On astro or dirt i've found the car slows down at a reasonable rate without drag. On carpet. Not so much!
Also, too much drag brake *can* upset the car in the air.
