Hi, there are some simple things you can do:-

Make sure the driver is only wears what he needs under his suit.

Remove Mychron

Shorten all bolts so two threads are showing

Shorten all chromework beyond the fixing points

All of the above should cost nothing, you can spend money on lots of lightweight components but being realistic if you are over the weight limit at 9 yrs old it will get difficult to make the weight for two more years.

Removing the paint and sticker kit is only just over 1kg but if you are serious you have to take all the easy options before spending even more expensive bits. As you have already done the main lightweight items it will get more expensive and you will not make much more difference to the weight.

We managed to get out Zip lightening down to about 50.5Kgs if you are already below that I think it maybe time to get realistic.
