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.

Stirling Moss pilots the number 48 Scarab during the 1960 Monaco Grand Prix, its form a blur of motion. The American-built cars were disappointingly slow, so team owner Lance Reventlow asked Moss to test one to determine if the fault lay with the driver or the car. Though Moss achieved a better time, it was still not enough to qualify for the race. Spectators watch from a grandstand lined with advertisements for Shell and Campari, with the city’s hillside buildings visible in the background.
