A few years after the end of the war, a number of small toy race cars were being produced and hobbyist started powering them with model engines equipped with glow plugs. As speed increased, purpose built racing MITE were built specifically for competitive racing. While most MITE cars raced on circular tither tracks a small number were built for racing on high banked oval shaped rail tracks.
