Here is an interesting CVR recording of another MD-80 crash on takeoff for different reasons. However, the had an inop RAT that thet were dealing with just before takeoff roll and you can see how they handled it. You have to go to Appendix 2 and scroll down about halfway to the appropriate transcript.
Then again, they didn't go back and then forget their flaps the next time. Although if they had gone back, this accident would not have happened.
