V1 or not ???

Hiiiiiiiiii,

I have a bit of a confusing question on V1 speed.

Lets say you are really heavy and your balanced field V1 is 160 knots.

That means you could abort the takeoff at V1 and SHOULD be able to stop on the runway.

Now what if you were light and V1 was 130 knots.Then comparing it with the case above wouldnt your Vr be before V1 since you know you could stop even if V1 was 160 knots.

Yes, i know V1 has to be before Vr but ........................Oh im

Could someone help out

Sonia
