The Denali Highway

Hello to you all,
We're planning a trip to Alaska in late July- early August.
Our plan includes spending 3 days (2 nights) in Denali national park, stay at some cabins outside the park, and each day take the shuttle into the park and wonder around.
After that we would like to drive on the Denali Highway towards Paxon, Glennallen and especially towards Wrangel St. Elias NP.
My questions are about the Denali Highway:
1) How long will it take to "cross" from Denali NP to Paxon, considering we're stopping and enjoying the scenery around that road?
2) Is it logical to start the day in Denali NP (let's say leave on 8am) and finish it in Copper Center? or is it to much to drive?
3)Where should we stay for the night for this plan, if not in Copper?

Please consider that we have a Toyota Corolla, and not a 4X4 WD....\
Thank you in advance!

Ziv.
