Default OMG Stupid Dizzy rotor screw strips

Ok, I was just going to install MSD ignition on my 97 d16y8 (even though its not a fan favorite mod... not the point = P ) and after removing the dizzy cap the one screw (that one that you need to crank the car so it can be come visible) that holds on the rotor on starts to strip 1 min after trying to get it off. C'MON ITS A SIMPLE LITTLE PHILLIPS SCREW WHY THE HELL DID IT STRIP SO FAST?!?!?!?!?!

I just was trying to get it out by hand with your average screw driver. So now what? am i fucked, because there is barley any room to get any other tool in there to help get it out, or like a dremmel some new contact points...

IDEAS PLEASE.

Break off the plastic part of the rotor and use vice grips.
