DYNAMIC MODELS
A
company specialized in model airplane accessories, Dynamic entered the filed of
slot car racing accessories in 1963. By 1964, they entered into a joint venture
with AMT, the giant of plastic model kits. This collaboration allowed Dynamic to
have the use of AMT "purple" Mabuchi-sourced motors as well as AMT injected
bodies. Announced in period magazines, a Mustang "Fastback" and a Cobra roadster
RTR were announced but apparently never issued. Parts connecting the AMT bodies
to the Dynamic chassis do exist. The first true Dynamic RTR models were the
Renegade and the Bandit, two "dream" cars over typical die-cast aluminum chassis
and specific wheels and tires. A Harvey Indy and a Mirage kit followed, and
Dynamic were on their way. They produced kits and RTR cars until 1974, when they
completely converted to R/C racing. Principal "Hi" Johnson was killed in a
hang-glider accident in 1979.
