As stated above that worked, I also figured out how to store a delta time on the object itself and feed it frames using a custom property. HOWEVER I encountered a logic issue for NETWORK ISSUE that ill ask in another post

selfObject = bpy.data.objects[watashi.name]

if x > 0 and selfObject["hasPopped"] == 0 :
    selfObject["hasPopped"] = 1.0
    selfObject["startTime"] = timein

#outtext = watashi.name
#hasPopped = selfObject["hasPopped"]

hasPopped = selfObject["hasPopped"]

timeout = selfObject["startTime"]

deltaTime = timein - selfObject["startTime"]
if selfObject["hasPopped"] == 0 :
    deltaTime = 0
