Narrative:
Was cleared for takeoff. Takeoff roll was sluggish. Engine began missing. Aborted takeoff. Was instructed to turn left on taxiway. Inadvertently turned left onto inactive runway. Contributing factors include: frequent use of inactive runway to taxi (when instructed) and jet on short final to active runway. I was trying to get clear of active runway quickly to keep jet from having to go around. To avoid this problem, runways should not be used as txwys when adequate txwys exist. Also, should stay calm and listen more closely during instructions after aborted takeoffs.

Title: PLT OF SMA, FOLLOWING ABORTED TKOF, EXITS RWY ONTO ANOTHER RWY RATHER THAN THE TXWY TO WHICH HE OR SHE WAS CLRED.
Narrative: WAS CLRED FOR TKOF. TKOF ROLL WAS SLUGGISH. ENG BEGAN MISSING. ABORTED TKOF. WAS INSTRUCTED TO TURN L ON TXWY. INADVERTENTLY TURNED L ONTO INACTIVE RWY. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS INCLUDE: FREQUENT USE OF INACTIVE RWY TO TAXI (WHEN INSTRUCTED) AND JET ON SHORT FINAL TO ACTIVE RWY. I WAS TRYING TO GET CLR OF ACTIVE RWY QUICKLY TO KEEP JET FROM HAVING TO GO AROUND. TO AVOID THIS PROB, RWYS SHOULD NOT BE USED AS TXWYS WHEN ADEQUATE TXWYS EXIST. ALSO, SHOULD STAY CALM AND LISTEN MORE CLOSELY DURING INSTRUCTIONS AFTER ABORTED TKOFS.
