Narrative:
Attempted takeoff at performance limit. IAS seemed to accelerate more slowly than normal; to approximately 80 KTS where I made the procedural callout. The aircraft seemed to be accelerating faster than was indicated; and the runway remaining did not match what might be needed for the takeoff. The takeoff was rejected; and the aircraft taxied back to the maintenance facility. All 12 main gear tires deflated.
