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

At the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, team owner Lance Reventlow (in the orange jumpsuit) confers with driver Stirling Moss. Disappointed with the performance of his Scarab racing car, Reventlow had invited Moss to test it and determine if the issue was the driver or the machine. While Moss did achieve a better time, it was ultimately not enough to qualify for the race. The dark blue car in the foreground features a distinctive emblem of a helmeted turtle named "Scrappy."
