Sound of Speed, The F1 Scarab: - 1960 - Part 2

by Mike -

The story of Lance Reventlow and his Scarab race cars fascinates me. I hope you enjoy these videos that were introduced to me by Scott, a My Car Quest reader.

Part 1 is here.



Read my other articles about Lance Reventlow and the Scarab here and here.

Lerner, 1991, 1st ed., follows the history of the cars and some of the colorful people who made up the team including its leader Lance Reventlow, follows the victories and losses while also looking at the privates lives of some of those involved.

  3. I'm the gent who posted these Scarab F1 clips...on the YouTube. My channel, there, wraps itself about other Scarab offerings (Sports Car). I grew up, if such is the case, with these motor cars...as my late uncle was influential with the MEISTER BRAU team.
