I am planning a route and I am trying to estimate the timing from DP1 to DP7 on the TSE route. Anyone have rough estimations of how many hours it takes to do that stretch? TIA!

Or even just the Laguna Hanson Road piece. Seems like it's about 50 miles, but I am not sure of average speed. Maybe 25-30mph? We have Raptors and Full Size rigs.

@kgorman Laguna Salada is a giant playa (dry lakebed), as long as there hasn't been any recent rain. If it's dry, you can easily approach freeway speeds in many locations (not recommending it, but it's possible!). You should be able to manage that section within a couple of hours if you don't stop at any of the DPs/POIs along the way-- but you should! Lots of cool stuff to see in the side canyons, and the old general's mansion and guadalupe canyon hot springs are both worth checking out.
