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.

Disappointed with the slow pace of his Scarab cars, team owner Lance Reventlow invited Stirling Moss to test one at the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix. Moss, wearing a white helmet and goggles, sits in the cockpit of the number 08 car, surrounded by onlookers in the paddock. Although he managed a better time than the team's regular drivers, it was still not enough to qualify for the race.
