I don't think a driving style of flicking the back end out or using drag brake is very effective in TC in the first place! Smooth is fast every time.
Buggies are a very different driving style, if anything flicking the tail out is more common in buggies than in TC, off-road is more about pivoting the car in the corners and lining it up straight for the bumps and jumps whereas TC is about carrying speed through the apex and a flowing line between the corners.
So maybe turn the aggression down a notch in your driving and focus on being neat - it REALLY pays off in off-road.
I've just come back to indoor 2wd buggy after almost 5 years away, still using a B4, I have a setup from before that I am more or less happy with, and after a new set of tyres and a couple of race meetings I am lapping about a second off the pace - which is not so bad considering I was a second off the pace when far more people were running B4's.
