Extasy drugs are not widely spread in Russia since their are more expensive to buy. Винт and джеф are home-produced and they can make an effect even \"speedier\" than extasy based. Also, extasy is a \"dance-floor\" drug, not a \"street\" kind.

It\'s OK to use it this way, just make sure that readers will understand that it has nothing to do with the \"speed\" drug

extasy-based drug
скорость is an extasy-based drug, so "скоростные" must be people who consume this kind of drugs
