Default not starting when hot....

sometimes when i run my car hard(above 5k rpm) or race the lude, the car does not want to start right after, it will start if i just let it chill for a couple of minutes. what do you think it could be?? i replaced the rotor cap, distributor cap, spark plug wires, coil wire, relays- all OEM, battery, and the plugs but those are bosch platinum 4. ive been told that it could be the ignition coil but i dont know. Maybe a fuel problem?? if i drive my car normall and dont f around it starts right up. Any input is much appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.

Next time it acts up turn the key on , but do not crank it over. Watch the check engine light, if you do not hear a faint "click" when the engine light goes off then the main relay is bad..

Check your main relay and make sure your fuel pump was working. I just replaced mine yesterday, and was having the same problem.
