Doing it right: Audi RS6 busted going 133mph with 2000lbs of weed on board.

[PlasmaBomb]

lets see. 20k lbs

over her a pound is about 5000, bulk pricing were looking at ~65000 worth of weed.

what the fuck was he doing speeding with $65000 worth of chronic on him,? idiot deserve what he gets.

Wat??

2,000 lb

1 lb = $5000

2,000 lb != $65000

Math fail

From the article you linked...

I'm sure it can't go at full speed with a ton on board...

Perhaps you should read your links??

The full link says -

These police do not have anything to follow that car at full speed, while carrying about a ton ballast

Weight will have less of an effect on top speed than aerodynamics. Granted the acceleration would suck compared to the unladen car...

The previous RS6 avant would hit 170 mph in unlimited form with a mere 444 BHP. The current version has 580 BHP and normally is electronically limited to 155 mph. I would think that it has a surplus of power for 155 mph, granted if its suspension bottoms out you are stuffed...

This reminds me of the RS4 Avant in Layer Cake. Those are some classy, if not slightly dimwitted criminals.

Holy shit...not very smart. Must have been smoking some of his own stock.

It could be a missed print. I dare say it is 20 lbs of weed. I would have great difficulty trying to hide 200 lbs of weed in the car let alone 2000 lbs.

[edit] My bad they have vacuum packed weed packages that were loaded to the roof of the SUV.

Seems that a twin-turbo, Lambo-V10 engined Audi RS6 Avant (good for at least 580 hp) was busted outside of Seville, Spain for not only going 133 mph, but for carrying 2,000 pounds of pot. Twenty-seven bundles of hashish to be specific. Value? €120,000, or about $180,000 USD.

I'm kind of wondering if there's a misprint there too.
180000/2000...Pot is only $90/lb? I don't know too much about this stuff, but isn't just a small quantity of it fairly expensive?

hmmm... seems like it is out. Add an extra zero to the end?

$1.8 M

(Michigan Times puts it at $1k/lb

its atleast 4500 for a LB of anything decent around here.

Like my brother always says, only break one law at a time. If you are carrying pounds of weed, you might want to slow down.

Here's a copycat driver: Audi A3 going 99 mph with 5 pounds of weed and three guns.
