My guestimation is that since the T/R (RR & GE) will take twice as long to retract as deploy say 3 seconds and until then no thrust can be commanded, then add spool up time of 5 seconds add decision & response time of the PF, that is some 10 to 15 seconds of little accel or decal screaming down the strip into what ever you are trying to avoid. Now there is a matter of speed brakes & autobrakes to resolve, some flaps etc… this is if all goes to plan.

Hit the anchors and rudder around it (keep the eyes open).
