A tire properly patched/plugged should be fine to drive at legal speeds for everyday driving (not over 75mph) for the remaining life of the tire. Millions of people have done this without any problems.
However, if you want to go faster than 75mph or take corners faster than someone would in a minivan, (and definitely if you're heading to a track), you should replace the tire.
Its about that simple.
