Default Car wont start sometimes

I have a 95 accord, 5spd. After driving the car for long periods of time i.e. out of town road trip or I drive it hard after I turn it off it will not start for 30mins. When i turn the ignition I get power to the dash but i dont hear the starter, no clicking no nothing. After letting it sit for 30mins it starts just fine. wat could this be?

When you turn the ignition does it try and turn over or is it just dead nothing? Or is there a "tink" sound when you turn the key, like the starter is stuck?

I'm about 90% sure the 95 did not have the starter relay [except V-6] 5Spd is 4cyl.
So to diagnose this problem you could use a test light at the starter solenoid wire [Black/white stripe] to see if the ignition switch is putting thru power to the starter solenoid.
