Dynamic Trial 7 was a 1993 arcade game that didn't get released. It was a vertical racing game where the PCBs could be linked for a multiplayer experience of up to four players. In the game, the player could select seven types of cars with their own unique racer, and could use power-ups to impede the opponents' progress.
History
Dynamic Trial 7 was developed by Toaplan and was heavily previewed in magazines, but the feedback was unfavorable at the location test, causing it to be shelved. When @GoldWing1992 on Twitter brought the game up to Tomonobu Kagawa (graphic designer for Truxton II), he stated that Naoki Ogiwara was involved in the graphic design, with Kagawa expressing disappointment at the game's reception. It is not currently known who made the music for this game.

In June 2016, arcade PCB collector Eric "ShouTime" Chung acquired a Dynamic Trial 7 PCB and uploaded screenshots of the game to his Tumblr, along with a video of the attract mode a few days later. However, his copy has not been dumped, and following ShouTime's controversial departure from working for MAME developers to exA-Arcadia in 2021, only time will tell if someone willing to preserve this lost game finds and adds Dynamic Trial 7 to MAME themselves.
At the Toaplan fansite Shooting Star, someone by the name of "Mr. Kakiuchi" provided a sticker of a limited edition Dynamic Trial 7 certificate congratulating players of the game.
