Pinion Gear Chipped - is it ok to run?

Kinda depends a bit on application as well..
What is the ratio? What is the intended usage ? Daily driver, 500 h.p. down the strip, 900 h.p. and always smoking the tires ? ( I never really got that one. But then I'm a circle track guy. In my world, if you are "smok'n the tire. you ain't going nowhere).
I'm no 100% gear knowledgeable guy , but during 40 + years of circle track racing I have run worse and been ok. BUT ... That thought was always in my mind.... what if......
The pattern looks ok. Maybe not perfect but....
If I was going to use it for a daily driver.... Sure ..put it in.
