Once you are in the main menu, head to "Race" then "Free Play" then start up "Quick Play".
If you don't own the car, you can rent it free of charge, do note you won't get any Car Level progression.

In the main menu, head to Race then Free Play then start up Quick Event Setup.
Select buy or rent cars and then choose the 1973 Pontiac Firebird Trans AM SD-455.
Then set Game Type to Timed Race, set track to Eaglerock and set the track layout to Club Circuit.
Set Race timer to 00:30 and set Drivatars to 0.
Start the race and you should unlock the achievement at the end of the race.
