If he's watching it as he accelerates, instead of accelerating normally, he might not hit 3000rpm until 70... Since its only in cylinder 1, I'd guess its the cap instead of the rotor (that'd likely have a smattering of misfires across the board).
Pull and check for chips (to confirm) or just replace with a junkyard one that looks OK if you'd rather throw a couple of dollars at it to see. Whats a new one at the dealer now-a-days, $50?

If you're not driving it "like its stolen," are you really driving?
