We weighed our Zip Storm and another competitor at the same time this weekend , they were both 54.5Kgs with roughly 1/4 of a tank of fuel.
There are various ways of reducing weight but as with everything in Karting it is not cheap.It is difficult to be competitive unless you are close to the limit, 2 or 3 kgs is probably not too bad at the moment but it depends how long you have left in cadets.
Most cadets tend to move up to Juniors based on weight rather than age. I suppose it depends if you are just learning the ropes and happy to be out there having fun or if you want to go out and win races/meetings or championships.
