Micro Machines was a line of toy cars and the like sold in the U.S. from the late 1980s to the mid-late 1990s by Galoob (now owned by Hasbro). They were much smaller than Hot Wheels and Matchbox and came in packages of five. The line also included many playsets, most notably the Highways and Biways collection of restaurants, car washes, farms, etc., connected by plastic track pieces.

Game based off the 80's toys of the same name. The series lasted from 1991 - 2017, with the most recent game being... Well... Depends how you see it.
The games will usually start by you choosing a character (ex: Walter, Cherry, Spider, Chen) and racing. You can qualify if you've reached 1st or 2nd place and move onto the next race. There is also a mode called Head-to-Head, where racers have to end the race with the most points (by making the opponent drive off-screen).
Person: Hey, wanna play Micro Machines?
Person 2: Yeah, as long as it isn't Turbo Tournament 96'. I fucking hate that one.
