My son drove my Camaro for one day cause I forgot why but something was going on with his car. It was 110 out and he works and manages Domino's Pizza chain (college job). Anyway the car was cranking slightly slow for about 1 month, only the driver would notice this as it was subtle. He was making store to store runs so lots of stopping and then hot starting. At the end of the day the car was broken in the parking lot with what you describle. NO SOUND from the starter, not even a click of a relay. The starter was just "frozen". I swapped starter, wrapped the starter and about 1 foot of the header (two close tubes). spray with silver silicone heat wrap protector.


So once again, "the car won't even try to start" aka won't crank, and in my case for sure there is no relay click or at least no audible one above all the other stuff that is going ok. It is just press the button and no crank... The starter wrap looks better.. sorry. and no don't want to get into a debate on why or why not headers should be fully wrapped.. I personally don't like any wrap, but in this case a partial wrap for heat is a must. Looks better with more coats of silicon heat wrap spray.... so DON'T beat me up
