Default CLutch question

I just recently (1-2 months ago) put my 2005 GTO back stock and when I removed the Monster 3.5 Chromoly flywheel, this is what I found. warning, tons of pix














Now in the pix of the clutch disk, the rivets are equal to the clutch material in some places. I have right at 7-8k miles on this clutch, and a new slave cylinder. I followed a proper break in procedure of easy, stop and go style driving without riding/slipping the clutch. I did this for 1k miles of the 7-8k miles of life. Is this normal? The car was running right at the 450-470whp, no sticky tires, no track time, no launches from dead stop.

I wasnt having a drivablity issue when I took the clutch out matter of fact it was running awesomely. I only took it out so I could reuse it in my next LS based car. I saw this and was kinda worried about it.

Bump for any idea why it wore to the rivets in areas?
