2002 NHRA Trans Am
I actually just test drove one today and am thinking about buying it. It isnt any faster than my 2000 Z28 with a loudmouth II and slp lid. my car made 333 hp and 333 tq at the tires. It is a damn nice car though. So i would say it doesnt make anymore power than your standard 2002 LS1

This is what I got when I saw one at a cruise night.... and he had a paper with this under the hood....
In the year 2000 Pontiac began releasing the “N.H.R.A. Special Edition” package on their V-8 Trans Am to celebrate their involvement in the N.H.R.A (National Hotrod Association). To honor this Great American pastime, Pontiac produced only 136 N.H.R.A. Special Edition vehicles in 2002 with truly a diamond in the rough, and are bound to be collector items simply items simply for their rarity.
The 2002 N.H.R.A. Special Edition option for the Trans Am is a factory and dealer installed package which added between $1,070 and $ 1,095 to the sticker price. The N.H.R.A. package included a six-speed manual transmission with a Hurst Short-Throw shifter, a 3.42rear axle-ratio; P245/50/ZR16 Eagle F1 Supercar tires; power steering cooling system; Aluminum Driveshaft; ZO6 Corvette Clutch; Leather Interior; Chrome Wheels; and unique N.H.R.A. badging and keychains.

i have a 2001 NHRA TA convt, not too many differences, a power steering cooler, 3.23 gears, different tires, badging, keychain woohooo!!, one of about 143 built in 2001 and i have yet to see another convt...thats about all it has plus it brings a ton of curious people at car shows asking questions
2002 they made 535, 534 of which were sold, they were not available with the ws6 package this yea, but ran just as fast in the 1/4 mile as a ws6, there were 4 different colors available: red, black, white, pewter not all were standars the also had auto's
the majority of them that i have found online are backeast. i live in the central valey and have yet to see anouther one. They also made them in formula's not just t/a's. on the registeed list right now, mine is one of 15 being is it is black on black and a m6. all nhra's had the chrome 5 spoke 16" wheels. There used to be a section on ls1.com and there was a guy on there that knew the guy who strated the nhra editions, this such guy has passed away as of last year if i recall correctly. In a couple of places i have found that there were some other performance upgrades done to the NHRA's but i have not been able to justify such claims.
If u have a chance to buy one of these cars i would jump on it, because they will be one of the rarest fourth gens made as time goes on!
