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.

At the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, Stirling Moss sits in a Scarab single-seater racing car. Disappointed with the vehicle’s slow performance, team owner Lance Reventlow asked the famed driver to test its potential. Surrounded by crew against the backdrop of the Hotel Beaurivage, Moss, in his white helmet and goggles, confers with a team member from the open cockpit. While his lap time was an improvement, it was ultimately not enough for the car, numbered "D8", to qualify for the race.
