Unfortunately this thread is littered with "Stable Door" solutions for dealing with gross errors. (Most are assuming some sort of gross error in the takeoff weight calculation and/or thrust setting).

Threat and Error Management (TEM) should have trapped any errors long before the aircraft started the takeoff run.

Timing and/or distance acceleration checks are just too late as any errors so discovered invalidate both the "Go" and "Stop" calculations (and probably use the erroneous information anyway !)
