The unit begins with three live performers riding hoverboards and wearing [[Green Shell]], [[Red Shell]] and [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]-themed hats. They lead three smaller floats which feature costumed characters of Yoshi, [[Princess Peach]] and [[Luigi]], all riding [[Standard Kart]]s with [[Standard (tire)|Standard Tires]] in [[Anti-gravity]] mode. The Karts are riding on top of clouds, with the "Universal Cup" icon on the front, and covered in sculptures of various ''Mario Kart'' series items.

The Karts are riding on top of clouds, with the "Universal Cup" icon on the front, and covered in sculptures of various ''Mario Kart'' series items.


The main float is led by various live performers, mostly stiltwalkers, dressed up in costumes themed after the [[Koopalings]] and a [[Piranha Plant]]. The float's design is mainly based on the ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' version of {{classic link|SNES|Rainbow Road}}. It features a costumed character of [[Mario]] driving at the front, while sculptures of [[Bowser]] and [[Toad]] trail behind. All of them ride Standard Karts with Standard tires while Bowser rides a [[Standard ATV]] with the [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires, but they all drive normally this time. As with the smaller floats, this float is decorated with various items from the franchise, while the front has checkered flags with the word "FINISH!" in front. The back has a large finish line with two disco balls on the left and right to match the parade's "dance" theme. Some confetti cannons are hidden away behind [[Bullet Bill]] sculptures which, at the end of every performance, shoot out colorful ''Super Mario''-themed confetti and streamers at the audience.

The music that plays from the ''Mario Kart'' unit is comprised of many sound effects and musical segments taken from the ''Mario Kart'' series, all put together to match the main theme of the NO LIMIT! Parade. These include the item roulette sound from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and the race countdown audio from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', along with segments of the songs for {{classic|SNES|Rainbow Road}} and {{classic link|Wii|Rainbow Road}} added into the audio loop. 
 
In the NO LIMIT! Summer Splash Parade version, the Peach float is replaced by a Daisy float featuring a costumed character of Daisy; the Peach costumed character is moved behind the main ''Mario Kart'' float. Additionally, the performers on hoverboards are no longer present and the ones leading the main float now wear pit crew suits instead of Koopaling costumes. Two performers can also be seen carrying [[F.L.U.D.D.]] replicas. Water shooters attached to the main float were also added to be used by performers to spray water at the audience.<ref name=dtimes />
