The pilot added power, and the airplane veered left. The pilot applied the brakes, but the airplane continued off the left side of the runway. The airplane then impacted a fence, which resulted insubstantial damage to the left wing, right horizontal and the vertical stabilizer. The pilot reported that there were no pre-accident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
