SuperSonic Sled
The SuperSonic Sled demo by NVidia showcases the power of NVidia's GeForce GTX 400 series GPUs. The demo begins with a character strapping in to his 'SuperSonic Sled', pulling a lever, ready to go. At this point, the user may use on-screen controls or keyboard shortcuts in order to control the sled. The camera follows the sled at cinematic angles, stopping at points where things get destroyed by the mach 1 speeds of the sled.

Famous quotes containing the word sled:
“I weathered some merry snow-storms, and spent some cheerful winter evenings by my fireside, while the snow whirled wildly without, and even the hooting of the owl was hushed. For many weeks I met no one in my walks but those who came occasionally to cut wood and sled it to the village.... For human society I was obliged to conjure up the former occupants of these woods.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
