high speed tracking

hi CD!
we are thinking about the idea of a flywheel for our robot, spinning at about 2000-3000 RPM (not entirely sure about this number) and we want to see how fast he is spinning, and we tried to use this encoder:

this encoder couldn't measure the speed of the wheel fast enough...
how can we measure the speed of our wheel to know how fast he is spinning?
thanks guys
