Narrative:
I was departing from man. 45 minutes earlier I had flown in and landed on runway 29 with the other light traffic at the airport. When it came time for my departure; I noticed traffic was now using runway 11. I commenced the long parallel taxi to the end of runway 11. As I taxied down I noticed an aircraft depart 11 followed soon after by another aircraft. That pilot told the previous pilot there was another airplane trying to land on runway 29 and to look out. He departed and I noticed aircraft Y go around. He never spoke on the radio. I reached the end of runway 11 and did my normal runup. I taxied up to the hold line to get ready to depart. I called in the blind and asked aircraft Y if he was still in the pattern? There was no response from him but the first pilot reported he could not see him any longer. I looked long and hard at the approach end of runway 29 and could not see aircraft Y. I turned on my four taxi; landing and wingtip position led lights.I announced I was departing on runway 11 and taxied on the runway and firewalled my throttle. At about 40 kts into my takeoff run I spotted the wing lights of aircraft Y landing on runway 29 and coming straight at me. I waited another couple of seconds and 'horsed' my plane into the air and turned right over the taxiway. Aircraft Y went around to his right. I estimate we missed each other by 200 feet. I again tried to contact him with no response. I did not check the AWOS or observe the windsock prior to my departure since runway 11 was being used.
