You will need to clarify what kind of motor, boosted or blinky, how big of a track, etc., etc. and then you can get a ballpark guess - one from which you will need to fine-tune based on motor temps after that.

I'm new too, but here's something I learned that works for traction, acceleration and top speed...

less pinion teeth typically means more acceleration with lower top speeds. vice versa for pinion gears with more teeth - we all know that. However, pinion gears with more teeth tend to spin the wheels less when you floor it, so you may get MORE traction which will give you MORE acceleration coupled with the higher top speeds you get everything. It's advice I got here, but I often see the opposite advice given for more acceleration. I guess it depends on the grip you have on a given track. ...just something I thought is worth adding to this thread.

Next up I'm going to test punch control on my esc for more traction and accel power
