Matt Winnacker of Fulton, Missouri sent in this photo, with a note: “This is Val, named after Valentino Rossi, ’cause he was fast & goofy when young, just like Rossi! He put in a lot of miles in the back of that truck riding to races around the country.” Do you have a pet named after a famous racer, or know someone else who has a pet named after a famous racer? Send an in-focus pet photo (as a jpeg file) along with the name of the pet, the name of their human or humans, and their hometown, to [email protected] .
