IMO, burping a little after a hard run and sudden shutdown is normal. There
is still a lot of heat stored in the cylinder head & block, but the water is
no longer circulating to carry the heat away. So the residual heat causes a
little boiling in the head.
The real question IMO is why it didn't go into the overflow. Sounds like it
may be blocked; or perhaps the upper lip of your radiator neck is damaged so
it doesn't seal to the cap.
