THE PILOT SAID THAT DURING THE TAKEOFF ROLL ON THE 2,400 FOOT LONG RUNWAY HE NOTICED THE AIRCRAFT ACELERATION WAS SLOW AND THE AIRSPEED WAS STILL BELOW 55 KTS AT 3/5 OF THE WAY DOWN THE RUNWAY AND HE ELECTED TO ABORT THE TAKEOFF. THE AIRCRAFT OVERRAN THE END OF THE RUNWAY, ACROSS A ROAD AND COLLIDED WITH POLES BEFORE THE PILOT COULD STOP THE AIRCRAFT. EXAMINATION OF THE PITOT-STATIC SYSTEM REVEALED THAT THE STATIC PORT WAS COMPLETELY CLOGGED BY A GUMMY SUBSTANCE AND THE PITOT PORT WAS PARTIALLY CLOGGED BY A COILED LEAF. FUNCTIONAL TESTING OF THE PITOT-STATIC SYSTEM AFTER CLEANING WAS SATISFACTORY.
