Monitoring takeoff acceleration

Dear Sirs.
The CHECK "Time to 90 kts" could have been, and can be, of some help in so many occasions.
I found, among my many FOMs the SE 210 Performance Chart.
Entering: Temp., P.A., A/C Weight, Wind Comp., Rwy Slope, Eng. bleeds, Flaps position, Rwy contamination, it was possible to calculate the acceleration time (sec.) to 90 kts.
