On-the-track racing is actually pretty safe, so long as there aren't novices out there with you (increases the probability of getting run over if you come off - novices tend to "fixate" on "the interesting thing", which, if you're sliding along in your leathers, is you).
Of course, you can get unlucky - hand stuck under sliding bike, high side, tumble during slide (I broke a collarbone this way - my own fault, though...).
