Even assuming eighty knots, NO brakes, no thrust reversers, and no spoilers; with over a mile of runway remaining, it seems like an aborted take-off should have simply rolled to a less catastrophic conclusion, especially considering the extra drag of the blown tire.

Any thoughts from Lear drivers? Thrust levers sticking (computer forcing them) open in situations like this? What is V1/Vr/V2 on the 60? What is the take-off roll? Perhaps the crew was following the training (over 80, go) some are touting on here; but, with the blown tire, were not able to get up enough speed to fly?
