Default Car Stalling + Now Overheating

As some of you know, i've had a problem with my car stalling when first started in mornings.

Well yesterday I walked out front at 5am like usual, started my car 3 times (arrrggghhh) and went back inside for a coffee and smoke.

Came out 15minutes later, jumped in my car and ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE.

What the F*^*k is that beepin noise. Coolant temperature at 124^C and rising.

I also noticed when i raced my mate round mt panorama for 5 laps yesterday arvo, the temperature only rose to 92^C which is where the thermostat cuts in.

So why the hell is it overheating while idling in ZERO degree temperatures at 5am, but i can thrash the out of it around the mount and not have a prob.

I also noticed when we pulled up at the end that a few minutes later the temp started to skyrocket.

Does anyone know wtf is going on?
