Ford has founded the Octane Academy, which is a camp for the kind of person who likes cars and posts videos of themselves on YouTube. The people who get selected to be in the Octane Academy will get to attend a camp run by Ken Block, Brian Deegan, Tanner Foust, and Vaughn Grittin Jr. So stop waiting around and get your grainy webcam footage ready if you want to rally race with Ken Block.
