Narrative:The private pilot reported that after an uneventful landing on Runway 26L, he attempted to exit the runway by making a right turn onto Taxiway Echo. During the turn, the airplane's left wing struck the surface of the runway and an elevated taxiway light stanchion. As a result, the airplane's left wing sustained substantial damage. When asked by the NTSB IIC if there were any preaccident mechanical anomalies that may have contributed to the accident, the pilot said, in part: "No, I guess I was just going a bit fast for the turn."
Probable Cause: The pilot's excessive taxi speed while turning, which resulted in an on ground collision with a taxiway light and the ground.
