Going to DMV this week to put license plate on RSA, if successful looking at calendar for 2nd half April and May, June and July events and meeting up with the Farmer hopefully.
I'm thinking in order to drive to the tracks and some canyon running, I'll add stock exhaust to be allowed on the wussy tracks and try to fit in with the locals, NT-01 and a seat with removable halo side things. No AC needed I assume that time of the year, I assume?
Need centralized shop(s) that can keep a 964 running and may be able to flatbed the car to the nearest track.
I'll check back in next week.

If I can make the car street legal I'm thinking shipping the car middle of April and ship it back late July or maybe late September. And keep it at a race shop.
Just canyon running, some DE, some racing maybe? Fly in, fly out.
My truck and trailer (being build now, done mid April) may or may not be able to stay in CA for the summer. Maybe I can park a 46' truck and trailer in front of Mooty's house? I may ship the RSA and have the truck and trailer dropped mid May for my use through the summer and drive the trailer back with the RSA. It's an option.
I'm racing the RSA at PCA at road Atlanta in 2 weeks after that it can go west, perhaps I will do another race "the Mitty" or something also at Road America late April, but than it will be mid may before the car gets to CA.
May-September it's to hot and humid to take the car to the track in Florida for sure, in CA I have a chance it's not too bad.
If I ship the car, I rent an Eclass 911 to do PCA races at Watkins Glenn, Road America and maybe a few more. Watkins Glenn is May 30 and road America is Aug 30. There are also some PCA races on the west coast so maybe DE or race if I can find a support tent.

If I don't ship the car west, I'll do the races in the RSA but I think it's a good time to do Mancation in CA and maybe drag wifey out to do wine tasting and spa days here or there.

I'd love to join the fun but it'll be late May, first of June before I (for sure) have a track worthy car.

Pete, just rent a car :-)
I have not worked on this car myself and don't really want to so I'll need the car to be at a shop that can do the maintenance and these old cars need more looking after if I do a few events.
I'm pretty flexible if I can leave my truck and trailer there and have a license plate on the racecar.

Not trying to talk you into this but it could be a good solution to address your needs.
I don't have the number of redheads needed to rent a car

+1 Canyons. Can help both Socal and Norcal. So many roads; never enough time.
South Bay has a bunch of shops and the secret warehouse. I'm sure you have lots of options.

Trakcar, here's some important dates that for track events that you might want to consider...
April 19/20 - Buttonwillow (no sound limits at this track) with Speed Ventures (www.speedventures.com)
May 3/4 - Chuckwalla (no sound limits at this track) with PCA San Diego
May 9-11 - Buttonwillow with PCA Central Region on Friday and PCA GGR on Sat & Sun (our Nor Cal friends)
May 17/18 - Spring Mountain (in NV - no sound limits at this track and nice condo on site) with Speed Ventures
June 28/29 - Laguna Seca (105db limit this weekend) with POC (www.porscheclubracing.org)
July 12/13 - Thunderhill (103db limit) with PCA GGR
The weather at Buttonwillow will probably be 85-90 in April and 90-95 in May, at Chuckwalla it'll be 90-100, Spring Mountain will be around 95, Laguna Seca will be 70-80, and Thunderhill will be around 100. The humidity is a lot lower out here versus in the Southeast so you can deal with it if you stay in the shade and drink lots of water.
I will take a break after the Thunderhill event until mid/late Sept as July & Aug are brutal to track at these tracks (105-110+).

Thanks guys, I have no idea where these places are geographically but I will start planning as soon as I know I can get the car titled. Hopefully this week so I can work on it on the weekend...
