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, the American-built Scarab cars were disappointingly slow. To determine if the fault lay with the car or the driver, team owner Lance Reventlow invited Stirling Moss to test one. In the bustling pit lane, under large "CINZANO" advertising banners, the number 48 Scarab is surrounded by team members and observers. Although Moss did achieve a better time, it was ultimately not enough for the car to qualify for the prestigious race, which was run on a street circuit visible with its distinctive hillside and arched viaduct in the background.
