During races, each probability distribution is chosen depending on the distance from the frontrunner in the moment the Item Box was opened. The distance reported is the one at which the switch to the next distribution happens.<br />

Versus races feature five additional distributions sets whose distributions are all made to obtain a specific item and whose purpose is unclear. Most of them are reported without the distance as it is not determined whether they are used by drivers controlled by players or by the software.

In Battle Mode, the probability depends both on the time and on the number of balloons left. The conditions reported here are derived from the Prima Games' official guide.<ref>Prima Games.

Just like with Versus Races, there are additional distributions sets whose purpose is unclear.
