Chain Link Vs. Car

In my game last night, the players (action cops in a TL7 fantasy world) had to get into a ghost town that had been sealed off by chain link fence in order to stop the road pirates that had hijacked a shipment of hazardous material (refined ectoplasm) before the magical containment's duration ended and it got loose.

I couldn't find anything about the DR of a fence--plenty of info on steel bars and wooden planks and piles of cement, yeah. Nothing on chain link.

I rolled some dice and mumbled and took what I remembered from that episode of Mythbusters and they got through, no prob., because, of course, the PCs needed to get into the ghost town so I could start shooting at them. But has there been anything official on the strength of a fence like this? Or other type of fences?
