Repair jobs are fine. I have patched R comps with DIY "dog turd" repair kits in competition and then driven at 200+ with no problems and continued to race on the tyre til it wore out. (Kit is designed for this application) As long as it is in the middle of the tyre and not on the shoulder a tyre shop will do it for you. Just patch it. It will be fine. But leave it to a professional shop if you haven't DIY'ed before.
