Ricky Ashworth, Steve Worrell and quite a few more with broken bones they wouldn't have received at other tracks. Its not ‘the fence’ its what ‘the fence’ is attached too, ARMCO barrier and a earth mound, no give whatsoever, which is why the SCB Refs reports had the track rated as the worst for ‘faults’ in the country until the chairman changed the reporting system. Wonder why ? Dont get me wrong, the track itself always produces good racing but its outer fence construction, with steel beams sticking out and wire ropes is a joke for a speedway track. -
Yes, it is my opinion... I doubt that any energy absorption tests have been carried out at any of the tracks with their different combination of fence construction. It would be interesting to see those results if tests have been carried out. It's common sense that an airbag in front of a springy wire mesh fence is going to be a hell of a lot better than a foam bag in front of a metal fence in front of a solid wall of soil or concrete.

Ricky Ashworth didn't hit the fence he hit his head on the track, Zaine Kennedy went through the backstraight fence (No track has air or polyfoam fences down their straights). You really need to research before spouting crap on forum's -
Off the top of my head, Joe Lawlor, Zaine Kennedy and Ricky Ashworth
