It seems, we have found the culprit!
This wire almost burn where it connects to the starter. Also we have changed all battery cables and connectors + cleaned some grounds wire. the alternator and starter are ok and I didn't change it.
It is all good now,,, I couldn't simulate or reproduce the issue, the car never shutdown to me after long driving... the volt reading is ok and stable at 14.0 when hot.
I will keep testing the car this week and will see how it will goes!
thanks everyone!

Thanks Nick for your comments and instructions! you was right buddy.
I took the car today for another ride, everything is ok and normal, verified the hot start issue and car started normally.
for the WOT, still not fully tuned and I have another issue (pressure drop in the middle of WOT), I hope it is related to this issue and pump volt! we will see that later

glad you figured it out. I had a similar problem with one of my vettes at some point and it was the starter wire too. funny is if there is a weird electrical issue first thing I would look for is battery/alternator and starter. I have witnessed 3 weird electrical issues due to the starter and its wires and 3 because of the battery. good luck! let us know how it does when you get it tuned...
