Default It does not start when it is hot

Hello all,
I have a RB T10 RC, it runs very nice in the track and it can finish a 30 minutes race with max 130 Celsius.
The problem is that if I stop the engine and it is hot about 120 celsius then it does not start unless it cools down. I can see the fuel in the silicone tube trying to enter the carburator but it returns and goes back and forth.
I have changed carburator, fuel tank, fuel tubes, air filter, venturi replaced with the normal novarossi and not the tall one from RB.
The engine runs very nice in the track and it idles well for more than 20 seconds. therefore I doubt that it is too lean, a reason that could cause such an issue.
I would appreciate if you could give me some ideas.
Thanks
