We present our Monte Carlo results of the random-bond Potts ferromagnet with the Olson-Young self-dual distribution of quenched disorders in two dimensions. By exploring the short-time scaling dynamics, we find the universal power-law critical behavior of the magnetization and Binder cumulant at the critical point, and thus obtain estimates of the dynamic exponent z and magnetic exponent η, as well as the exponent θ. Our special attention is paid to the dynamic process for the q = 8 Potts model.
