Holy crap, it looks like someone beat the hell out of it with a hammer!!
I have absolutely no idea what could cause something like that to happen...but i'm guessing it had to have been done while the wheel was off the engine and not while it was fitted.

By chance did you happen to misshift or over rev?
That is the result of loose bolts which could be caused by many things, Im guessing it was an over rev
The Fix- $$$
The flywheel needs to be replaced/repair; for just a little bit more than the cost to repair from a machine shop you could buy a new lighter flywheel. The crankshaft needs to be removed to be repaired/replaced. Cost for repair (including profiling/chamfering/balancing) should be less than a new crankshaft.

Yea I did over rev once on the track..The flywheel is new, but the melted shaving on the crank is gonna be a pain in the *** to fix from what you are saying...Is there any other method which one can do by themself instead of a shop on getting the melted shaving off the crank? Any Ideas or the only way is the shop?

Re: (ITR-2001)
You should talk to a machine shop if they could somehow resurface the crank with it still in the car. All you really need is a touch to get rid of the high spot to get the surface flat so that the new flywheel can mate up (hopefully that wont upset the balance of the crank)

Took of the tranny/clutch/flywheel and did that yesterday...I had a friend just grind the lump away and smooth out the surface...After that it seem back to normal, but I'm not sure if it will upset the balance of the crank though...
Thx everyone for your suggestion!

Those pits on the flywheel was welded onto his crank shaft. Metal was transfered not eroded.
If there was moisture or even soaking wet between the flywheel and crank, it would of dried once driven.
