Reduce mass, this will let you accelerate faster, reach the speed you require earlier, also a lighter aircraft will be able to stop faster, less inertia when braking!
interesting, but as the weight is decreased the balanced V1 will decrease, but what happens to your VMCG? Does this change with weight ?

Keith, thanks for clarifying that the original question was written incorrectly
