The Scarabs were disappointingly slow and to find out if it was the driver or the car, Reventlow let Stirling Moss try one. He did a better time but it would not have been enough to qualify. Monaco Grand Prix 1960.

During the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, Lance Reventlow's Scarab racing cars proved disappointingly slow. In this bustling scene on the tree-lined circuit, Reventlow invited Stirling Moss to drive one of the cars, seen here with the number 48, to test its potential. Surrounded by crew members and other vehicles under a "CINZANO" banner, Moss ultimately set a better time than Reventlow, though it was still insufficient to qualify for the race.
