Residents are calling for a public inquiry over plans for a £12m centre in Staffordshire where people would learn to drive high-performance cars.
Drive-me.net wants to add to its operation at Seighford Airfield, near Stafford, and has submitted revised plans to the borough council.
Debbie Lloyd, from Ranton, said residents were concerned if approved it could lead to a "huge" development.
But the firm said the project would bring jobs and investment to the area.
Residents are expected to protest over the proposals this weekend, ahead of Wednesday's Stafford Borough Council meeting where the plans had been recommended for approval.
They are also urging the council to send the plans to a public inquiry.
Driveme.net has a track at the airfield where people go to experience driving cars such as Subarus and Lamborghinis.
But Ms Lloyd said residents were concerned nearby villages would be hit by further development at the site.
"The biggest concern for a lot of residents is, if they do get approval, is not what it is now but what it could become - a huge, big development with hundreds of people on a weekend turning up."
'Driving experience'
She said people were concerned their villages would used as shortcuts from the motorway.
Driveme.net's previous plans for a driving school were shelved after opposition from residents.
Borough planners also recommend the original plans for refusal because of increased traffic and noise at the site.
The firm pledged to work closely with planners and in its re-submitted plans, the building's height and floor space have been reduced and there are 80 fewer parking spaces.
Driveme.net also said the business would only operate until 1800 GMT and because it was a "driving experience" and not a racetrack, noise-reduced cars would be used and noise from the site would be minimal.
