Both the Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST are wonderful hot hatches. So wonderful in fact that Ford wants to reward their owners in a big way so that they can fully enjoy their rides. The automaker has just announced that it will offer to send Focus ST and Fiesta ST owners to the ST Octane Driving Academy driving school absolutely free of charge. It's their way of saying "thank you" for buying one of their cars. The actual course takes place at the Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.

Owners will be responsible for travel, lodging and food. But what they do receive is a two-day long course that consists of class and driving instruction with professional drivers.

And yes, the cars that will be driven are the Focus ST and Fiesta ST. Participants will also receive a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing HQ that's located in nearby Park City. Those looking for some extra fun can stick around for another day that will include track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in the F-150 SVT Raptor. Looking to buy a new car these days? We can think of two very good suggestions.
