You can erase v-tracks (see pages 56 and 57 of the Micro BR manual), but the space isn't freed up until you optimize the song (see page 59). Unless you're absolutely certain that you'll never need those v-tracks again, it would be better to backup the card to your computer (see pages 104 and 105), then erase any completed songs from the card which you no longer need to work on (page 58). That way, if you ever want to work with the deleted songs again, you can restore them from the backup and all of the v-tracks will still be there.

You should also consider getting a couple of spare cards. It makes it a lot easier when you want to restore a backup if you have an empty spare card handy.
