Heavenly Symphony uses an internally simpler logo, as well as different font for the  START  button prompt and Sega logo outlining. Beyond the Limit uses a more complicated method for its title screen: in addition to adding a background image of an exposed Formula One engine, the Beyond the Limit graphic is overlaid above the F1 car silhouette that was part of the Japanese version's title (with the 1993 text removed). Additionally, the song "Time to Detonate" plays here after the Sega/Fuji Television credit from the narrator.[1]

US version

The race HUD is on the top of the screen in Heavenly Symphony and on the bottom in Beyond the Limit. The player's cockpit was also moved eight pixels down (not accounting for the HUD graphics or borders). The Total Time indicator was not moved with the change though, likely so it would not block the player's car.[1]
