Isn't that why we sign that 1000 word waiver? Anything can come flying at you if you are standing on the starting line.
A couple of years ago I had a connecting rod cap shoot out from under a stocker and whack my in the leg-no broken bones, just a nasty bruise. This spring in Vegas an open rear wheel roadster came out of the burnout box ( I was in front of this car) and a rock shot overtop of the rear wheel towards the starting line and hit me square in the center of the forehead. That was an attention getter. You cannot tether everything on these cars. I believe if you are standing on the starting line you better pay attention-this is a high risk area. if you stand there with the deer in the headlights look, you may get injured.
