It should have the NHRA fender badge and RPO 1SH on the driver's door decal. If it is an A4, it should also have the 3.23 rear (RPO GU5). There's a sticky above with details of what was included in the NHRA package and production breakdowns. There was nothing mechanically unique to them other than the badge (the 3.23 rear was an option on any A4 car, ALL M6 cars came w/ the 3.42 rear).

NHRA Special Edition Formula and Trans Am (2000-2002) was a commemorative edition to celebrate the NHRA's 50 year anniversary (in 2001), and Pontiac being a major sponsor of the NHRA for many years.
In 2000 there was a total of 215 NHRA Firebirds produced, of which 97 were Formulas.
In 2001 there were only 145 produced and in 2002 there were 535 produced.
The total number produced is 895.
The rarest are a few Trans Am Convertible NHRA SE models with approximately 15 of them.
Basically the NHRA SE comes with PS cooler (which all '02 Trans Ams have now)and GSC's on 16". The autos came with 3.23's and 6 speeds came with the default 3.42. Nothing really that special except for the cool badges.
You could only get NHRAs in white, black, pewter, or red.
Also, when you ordered a Formula / Trans Am, you had a choice between the WS6 or NHRA package. It was either or, and they could not be combined.
Pontiac has been the Official Car of the NHRA since Oldsmobile's departure as Official Car at the end of the 1995 Season.
The NHRA option added $1,070 - $1,095 to the sticker price and included (but not limited to) the following: Hurst manual 6-speed (3.42 ratio) or automatic transmission (3.23 ratio), power-steering cooling, P245/50ZR16 performance tires, and NHRA-specific badges & keychain.
The appeal of the 1SH option package (NHRA Special Edition) is parallel to the appeal of any "anniversary edition" car or "special pace car edition." It is a special designation to commemorate the NHRA drag racing series. The NHRA badges were made by Morgan Design Group (https://www.mdgglobal.com/).
According to Pontiac Historical services only 207 NHRA Firebirds were
built in 2000. Of that number only 110 were Trans Ams. The remaining
97 were Formulas.
