Probably the F-Zero games. In particular, X.

I personally consider X to be harder than GX, particularly Joker Cup Master compared to Diamond Cup Master. Big hand is a true fuck-off track. (Though, tbf, X has bullshit tracks on every cup-- High Jump is actual cheating AI B.S. and doesn't act anything like Aero Dive, Dangerous Steps is probably the hardest track in X, and is much harder than anything GX has (even Cosmo Terminal, but Cosmo Terminal is actually pretty easy once you get used to it; ditto with Slim Line Slits) X's Half Pipe is also a bullshit track and actually hard to deal with, unlike GX's. and so is Sector B. Yeah, X has Rainbow Psychedelic Experience which is a free win, but that's 1 out of 6 being a freebie. GX has Undulation and Dragon Slope, both of which are basically Ruby Cup tracks that somehow wound up in Diamond.

X cup probably doesn't count, but X cup master definitely can be harder than anything GX throws your way [where as the X equivalent in GX is the AX cup, which is even easier than Ruby cup.

X has a rougher physics engine, that while, sure, you're less prone to wall-bouncing, still blows ass, and tends to launch you into the air for no goddamn reason, like on High Speed [where if you live up to the track's name, you will die.]

I'll give Story Mode credit where Credit's due, Staff Ghosts are the hardest thing in either F-Zero and VH Chapter 9 pits you against a legitimate Staff Ghost on a unpracticiable track. But on that note, speaking of Staff Ghosts, X still wins there. God damn they're hard.
