Are you running long tubes? If so the starter could be getting heat soaked.
Check your starter relay too.

pull the plugs and check them, my car did that when it had a blown head gasket, it wouldn't start when the cylinder that was getting coolant into it was on the compression stroke.
pulled the plugs and one of them was rusty on the tip and had water around it.
