Depends. In simple terms you need to know what Vgo and Vstop are to make a decision. If say for example you are at MRTOW on a balanced field, then Vstop will equal Vgo and you will have a smjall margin in which to make your decision and neither will be correct. If taking off at a lower weight then these speeds will change - but by how much? And remember that V1 should not be below Vmcg.
