Default pinion gears question

what is the difference between a 19 and a 23 tooth pinion gear? what would the two do better/worse than the other?

A smaller pinion would give more low end and a larger would have more top speed. On a tight track you would need the low end to get out the corners faster. Different motors would use different gears at the same track. Finding the correct gear is like finding out which tire is going to do the best. Trial and error ...or just ask the fast guys.
