I've seen many pictures of snapped carbon forks, but all of them were due to some sort of impact and didn't just snap while riding along.

But I certainly would not mount a front rack to a carbon fork, and I would inspect it very, very carefully after any crash. Most wheel manufacturers specify a maximum weight, but I don't think your 200 pounds is going to exceed that.
