Branson is a very laid back, low/no stress event. The only scheduled events are the drag strip and the People's Choice car show Saturday. It's all voluntary and you're not "required" to do anything.
There are drives but, for insurance liability reasons, they are informal and not an official part of BZF. Maps are provided and folks organize there on cruizes.
I have driven the roads around Eureka Springs and will again. Eureka is only maybe 2 hours from Branson and from there I hit the road to the Pig Trail. Most of the routes I drive go through Harrison, AR., only about 30 minutes south of Branson.
Re. slow drivers, yes, you'll always have that. What has surprised me are the locals in their 4WD pick ups. I've gotten behind some and it's a challenge to keep up.
Typically, I arrive on a Tuesday and spend Wednesday-Friday driving different routes.
Hope to see a lot of you there!
BTW, a guy from Joplin with a white 350Z Roadster was planning on starting a Z Club in Joplin. I don't know how far he's gotten with it.
