What? How do you figure the flywheel goes around slower?

When I saw an email from Larry I thought we were going to get a whole other definition of what a Timing Pointer is in Cleveland, alas nothing so frivalous. 

A mark on the flywheel might not work as it is much bigger so goes around slower in comapriosn to the dampener....... ;)
