from Dallas to Memphis its cut and dry - I-30 all the way. from there i get mixed reviews.
my planned route is Memphis to Nashville to Louisville, Cincinnati to Columbus to Mid Ohio. this route is 1150 miles (17.75 hrs).

just today i was told to take I-55 out of Memphis and split from there to I-57 to Effingham to Indianapolis to Springfield to Columbus to Mid Ohio. this route is 1160 miles (18.5 hrs).

all travel will be sat/sun.
what route has least hills? best roads? frequent fuel stops?
feel free to add other options.

i feel option 1 is best.

I vote option one. I drove the Nashville - Columbus route many a time and it's not too bad. You just jump on I-65 and head north. When you get to louisville, take the Gene Snyder freeway ( the louisville bypass ) either north or east and while it may be a bit more distance, it should save time. You get off the Gene Snyder freeway on I-71 North and you take that all the way up to Mansfield where Mid-Ohio is. Enjoy the trip! If you wind up in Columbus late, we all should have some beers.
