Narrative:
Cleared to taxi to runway 12R via taxiway M and hold short at taxiway D. After a hold short at taxiway D; we were cleared for takeoff on runway 12R. At that position; runway 12R and runway 17 intersect. As I was turning left to enter runway 12R; the co-captain and I saw the runway sign for runway 12R and proceeded to take off. As I neared V1 speed. I glanced down and noticed the HSI reading 170 degrees. I commented we were on the wrong way and proceeded with the takeoff. After a brief climb; the tower controller indicated we departed on runway 17; however; that was ok; turn left to 340 degrees and climb to assigned altitude. The co-captain acknowledged the error to the controller and the controller responded 'ok; turn to heading 340 degrees.' there were no apparent traffic conflicts and the flight continued.
