Good morning,
I have patched the inside of front race tires without any balance issues.
Be aware that race tires are intentionally made lighter for what we do.
That being said I recently had a Hoosier tire with a small pinhole leak that I patched and "slimed" and wouldn't seal. There isn't a tremendous amount of rubber inside these tires. Clean inside and scuff and get tire cement from a good tire place - that should get the majority of tire leaks. Would have tire balance checked and corrected.
Respectfully,
