玉桂狗 – Tarmac Works Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II Macau GP 2025 Presentation
之前玩過Hello Kitty同Kuromi，今年澳門格蘭披治大賽車，Uno Racing Team攜手Tarmac Works與Sanrio，為Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II披上玉桂狗 (Cinnamoroll)主題拉花，由香港車手方駿宇駕駛36號戰車出戰FIA GT世界盃。賽內激鬥之餘，場外當然繼續有Tarmac Works賣同款1/64模型車啦！
玉桂狗由Sario於2001年推出，名字來自其捲曲如肉桂卷的尾巴，故事設定它是從天空白雲出生的白色小狗，依靠大耳朵在空中飛翔，個性乖巧，喜歡與人親近，並以Café Cinnamon咖啡廳為家。賽車拉花以淺藍、白色為主調，搭配雲朵與氣球圖案。性能方面，Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II採用5.2L自然吸氣V10引擎，最大馬力585匹，車重1,230公斤，配備6速序列式波箱，底盤為鋁合金與碳纖維混合結構。方駿宇曾於2016年勝出獨立車手盃(Silver Cup前身)，去年則因尾段被撞屈居亞軍。
如果有儲過去幾年的Sanrio賽車，今年其實沒有不買的理由。今年模型車上除了大量的玉桂狗「玉照」外，車頂更有Tarmac Works十周年圖案，「Every day is happy when I’m with my favorite friend!!」則置於引擎艙膠片上，其他如頭尾膠燈、防滾架等應有盡有。
Cinnamoroll – Tarmac Works Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II Macau GP 2025 Presentation
After previous collaborations featuring Hello Kitty and Kuromi, this year’s Macau Grand Prix sees Uno Racing Team partnering with Tarmac Works and Sanrio to dress the Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II in a Cinnamoroll-themed livery. Hong Kong driver Adderly Fong will pilot the #36 machine in the FIA GT World Cup. Beyond the on-track action, Tarmac Works will naturally be offering the matching 1/64 scale model!
Introduced by Sanrio in 2001, Cinnamoroll’s name derives from his cinnamon roll-shaped tail. The character lore describes him as a white puppy born from clouds in the sky, who flies using his big ears. Known for his gentle personality and love of people, he calls Café Cinnamon his home. Winning the Sanrio Character Ranking in 2001 and 2003, then reclaiming the crown in 2022 and 2024, Cinnamoroll has become Sanrio’s most commercially valuable IP after Hello Kitty. The livery features soft blue and white tones with cloud and balloon motifs—a stark contrast to the darker Kuromi theme from previous years.
Performance-wise, the Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II packs a 5.2L naturally aspirated V10 engine producing 585 hp (subject to BoP adjustments) and over 550 Nm of torque. Weighing 1,235 kg, it features a 6-speed sequential gearbox with rear-wheel drive and an aluminium-carbon fiber composite chassis. The evo II variant, launched in 2022, received optimizations across five areas: aerodynamics, engine characteristics, suspension, and traction control. Adderly won the Privateers Cup (Silver Cup’s predecessor) in 2016, finished runner-up last year after a late-race collision, and will be tackling the Guia Circuit for the 11th time.
If you’ve collected the previous years’ Sanrio racing models, there’s really no reason to skip this one. Beyond abundant Cinnamoroll graphics, the model features Tarmac Works’ 10th anniversary logo on the roof, “Every day is happy when I’m with my favorite friend!!” on the engine bay panel, plus detailed head/tail lights, roll cage, and all the trimmings—absolutely loaded.
