Was doing a Chief Pilot check flight from YRED a few moons ago when a C210 decided to sneak in front of us and try to get away from the middle intersection on 07. Didn't quite fit so we had to go around and his mains got awfully close to touching grass at the far end of the runway. On top of that he decided to head stright off into some rather non VFR looking weather........all of which was very interesting to the CASA field officer sitting to my right.......

Just another reason to backtrack.

If it was 07 you were using i would most certainly backtrack for every inch available, not too many options there for the first few hundred feet after take off.
