The more you race, the safer you become.  When you ride on the road, it does not matter how experienced you are or how safely you can ride fast - they will still get you.  You are not a threat to a car driver, so most do not even see you.

One thing I would say about dirt bikes - a lot of MotoGP riders come up through MX.  You seen them on TV putting a foot down in corners when they get nervous.  If you actually put you foot on the ground during a road race, you are likely to end up with it back-to-front.  MX is the main reason insurance for racing is so high.
