This article is about the driver. For the motorsport team, see Rumbly Raptor Racing.
RumblyLizard is a British racing driver currently competing in the F1Fanatic Forza Motorsport 3 Championship. He has raced for and founded Rumbly Raptor Racing and is one of the original 8 members of Really Rubbish Racing. Currently RumblyLizard races for Black Raptors with long time testing partner Smifaye.
On Friday 8th July 2011 he officially gained celebrity status by having a 3rd comment/question read out during an official F1 practice. Despite his celebrity status, he remains focussed on racing in Really Rubbish Racing and aims to finish in the top 3.
Forza Motorsport
Season 1: F1FFM3C
After a disastrous start to the season, RumblyLizard was towards the bottom of the table. Realising that he needed to race without assists in order to stand a chance, he changed his outlook and practised hard with long term testing partner Smifaye. This lead to a turnaround in his season and with a bit of skill, a healthy dose of luck and some mad tuning skills, Rumbly took his first win midseason. This proved to be his baptism of fire and Rumbly had a stonking second half of the season with further wins and podiums becoming a regular occurrence. Fortunately Rumbly's main rivals chose to have holidays at opportune moments and after a season long battle, he won the championship on 21st July 2011. Perhaps a slightly hollow victory but RumblyLizard feels no emotions as it is. As the new champion, Rumbly will sport the golden cock on his vehicle for the next season.
Season 2: RRRTCC
RumblyLizard has formed a team with Mr Flobadob for the newest season of Really Rubbish Racing known as RumbLee Racing. The team aims to do well in the championship with an exciting rookie/champion lineup. RumblyLizard intends to race with no assists as per season 1 and has encouraged his teammate to do so too. Aim high, fail hard is the teams unofficial motto!
A season long battle ensued with FlavouryRug and at the midway point of the season the pair were separated merely by a lag attack. Unfortunately, Rumbly's real life got in the way of the final few rounds leaving him unable to practice or compete to as high a standard as before. Begrudgingly, Rumbly handed over his number 1 to his rival. There was good news for team RumbLee Racing though as they secured 2nd in the championship on count-back.
Season 3: 4zaMC
A new Forza, a new season. Rumbly has teamed up with long time testing partner Smifaye to create a permanent racing team. Rumbly's aim is to get back the number 1 status. Nothing else will suffice.
After a battle with getting used to the clutch, a number of rivals (including the everpresent Tomcheesey) Rumbly came out on top to win his second championship for Really Rubbish Racing. The season included some great highlights, including a last lap pass of Dan 7horn at Hockenheim, a great battle with FlavouryRug at the Nurgburgring and a fascinating 4 way scrap for the lead at Road Atlanta.
Special Events
Endurance Race: GEER
RumblyLizard entered the race with the #45 Porsche. After a slow start from 6th he was held up behind Bookoi and then Tomcheesey. RumblyLizard fought his way past the pair eventually to find himself 3rd behind the two Jaguar's of Ajokay and Sodamn Insane 6. After a disconnect from Ajokay, Rumbly was left in 2nd place. Sodamn had Rumbly pegged for pace and while they traded fast laps, Rumbly could do nothing to erode his lead. 2nd place and 17 seconds apart after over an hour of racing was exciting though and Rumbly intends to compete in further endurance events in the future.
Renault Twingo SuperCup
Having come up with the concept of a SuperTwingo, Rumbly patented the idea and allowed Pete to create a championship. Disappointingly, he was unable to recreate any form of success and finished a dismal 6th place. However, Rumbly took some consolation from having beaten his main rival FlavouryRug.
Merry Crashmas
Rumbly entered the first GRID event with the hope that he would secure a win. He didn't and finished 2nd last. At least he finished a race...oh wait. Proof that alcohol and racing don't mix but they're a lot of fun!
Zer0 Emissions Endurance Event
Entering in the almighty Tesla and newly sponsored by Durex, Rumbly won his first special event and first endurance race. This was despite embarrassingly crashing into the pit wall for his first pitstop.
F1 2011
RRR F1 2011 Championship
RumblyLizard has entered this championship with Smifaye racing for the Williams team. Rumbly was unable to race in the early part of the season citing 'personal issues' however is now back and able to race...poorly. The season aim is a podium.
