When it is available from HP Tuners I'll probably have mine unlocked and we'll tune it.

Yeah, the ZL1 has the 10L90 design to handle the additional torque. I just came back from a drive and I am always impressed by it. I like the way it is geared down low and how fast it rips through the gears.
I sometimes compare the A10 to the single speed trans in our Tesla Model 3. The single speed trans has the advantage of not having to shift so the throttle response is even more immediate but the lack of gearing really hurts the Tesla once you reach about 60mph. This begs the question as to whether performance EVs should have 2 speed transmissions or do they go the way of the Model S Plaid where you just add more power and put a drive unit on each wheel.
