Boys motor sports inspired baby names

Ok everyone me and my wife will be welcoming our third baby sometime soon like at anytime soon. We do not know what we are having we have some girls names picked out but a very short boys list, and nothing that we are in love with.
We have 2 boys already and for my wife’s sake, I hope this one is a girl.
Our two boys names are motor sports related and my wife would like to kind of keep with the theme. I won’t give out my two boys names but I’ll give you hints. The oldest is a 2009 world champion and the second is the only racer to win the motor sports triple crown.
so what I’m asking is for some help I can’t seem to find anything that is making my wife love the name we have way to common a last name and my wife dosent think we need any more Brian’s,mikes or Pete’s.
Please help me out! I’m sure there are some names I’m forgetting or have just over looked

thanks so much!

Simple , Shelby ..............I know a two couples who named their daughters that. Great name for a young lady and frankly I think it sounds a lot better than Galaxie 500 !!!

I also don't think "Mustang Sally " is very relevant today, ha!

................well we know Escort is definitely not on the table ,ha. I guess if you are going automotive the question is whether you want it Blue Oval Focused or any brand or relevant to the automotive landscape? If it is a boy you could always go with Manual , since many of us are proponents of " Save the Manual ."

Some names for girls that are catchy, different and are automotive based are:

Avanti
Mercedes
Ferrari
Milan
McLaren
Lotus
Lexi --- modified from Lexus
Carrera
Lancia - pronounced like in Italy ( Lann-sia )
Cortina -- old British Ford model

You could name her " Rim " but then Blacksheep 1 would correct you and tell you she has to be called " Wheel!"

The IMSA official who is usually assigned our pit is named Lexi
 
It Does not have to be ford related I did think of the name Brock after Pete Brock the designer of the Daytona and also the BRE Datsuns but my wife isn’t sure in it she’s the picky one. Also we did like miles but then we got a cat and he got that name. It took my wife almost 3/4s of ford vs Ferrari to realize that I named the dog Shelby and the cat miles lol and they have been named that for like 6 years before the movie

Since you have a Shelby employee theme going, how about Remington, after Phil? You could shorten it to Remy. Which is also the name of the famous French stunt driver, Rémy Julienne. Just try to avoid watching Remington Steele reruns.

For a girl, there's Camee, one of Vic Edelbrock's daughters.
