Angry Car wont start!

I have a 1993 camaro z28, 5.7 liter, 4l60e transmission ,shift kit oversized cam, corvette heads. Ok, heres what happend.. my transmission went out in my car about 9months ago but thats not my problem today.. my car has been sitting for about the 9months the transmission had been out.. right before the transmission went out literally a week before i had changed out all my fluids so everything was kept up on.. so i went and put the battery charger on my car yesterday and let it sit on there for about 6 hrs.. i go out to start my car and it cranked prolly one to two times and fired up without no problem... so i let it run for about 20 min.. and shut it down thinkin i could get it to start back up.. so just as soon as i shut it down i tryed starting it again and sure enough it wouldnt start.. so i put the battery charger back on it.. let it sit for another 5 hrs or so and went back out there today on a full charge and all the car does it keep crankin and crankin it wont seem to fire.. but what i dont get is why it would start just fine the night before but wont start today.. it just keeps crankin and crankin and no fire? could it be a fuel problem or a fire problem? any help on this problem would be highly appreciated..

You need to provide the specifics of the vehicle you are asking about... year, model, engine, tranny and any major mods.

Could be either a fuel or an ignition problem, or several other possible problems. Does the car have a security system (factory or aftermarket)? Is the check engine light or any other dash light on? Have you scanned it for codes? Have you checked to make sure you have fuel in the tank? Was it damp overnight, possibly causing moisture to condense on the ignition system? Lot's of possibilities, so narrowing it down a bit with specific info about the engine we are talking about would help.
