"Mini" Stock Races

It seems to me that I remember a class of mini stock cars from when I used to see them when I was a kid. I mean cars the size of Austin Minis.

Does anyone else recall those?

In Nascar? I don't remember any mini-cars ever, but I really have not been into racing for that long.
How often did they race and was it like Nascar? The same racers each week?

Sorry, I'm not sure I ever saw a mini category in NASCAR. I think I may have seen a local category that had them, but maybe it was just for the novelty factor.

That was a lot of years ago and I'm not sure if I actually saw a race at a track once, or maybe I saw them advertised on TV at a fall fair or something.

I know what you are talking about but I am not sure I know the real name of them. I have seen them off and on through out the years but most times its been international, nothing based here in the US.

You're not thinking of the Legend Class, where the cars look like something out of the thirties?
