Default Car wont crank, lights ect.. all work

I was bracket racing yesterday and as I was pulling around for third round I turned the car off to keep it cool, went to start it back up and nothing, wouldnt crank a bit. Car has power as everything else works, I can hear the relays click, I can hear the fuel pump turn on when I try to start it. I also tried to cross the starter with a screw driver, it would turn and the motor would fire a few times but not stay running. Where do I start with this?

Could be a million things, I would try another key and see if it works out. If that doesn't work, unplug the battery for a hour or two and see if that works.

Other key doesnt work. Does the security light always flash when the car is keyed on?

Tested the starter, no power is getting to it. When the car is keyed on is the security light suppose to flash?

Got it fired up with the key today. Had to have VATS turned off then reground the starter. Only other thing is once its running the security light still flashes, is there a way to stop this?
