i forgot to mention, its a weber rotissere
hey drex... that's quite a mental picture there... 
Can't imagine even getting a brisket to stay on a rotisserie, or having it be able to "clear" it's rotation. Anyway, it's not really the kind of cut that should even try to climb on to a rotisserie, IMHO. Since it's gotta cook for many hours to get tender, it really does just fine layin there on the rack. Assume you're talking about a weber gas grill. If you have a big one, and can make a fire on one side, and place the brisket on the other side (not over flame), and maintain the chamber temp at something under 250, well then... you can cook a brisket. Unlike an open rotisserie, you would want to keep the top closed and use wood for smoke...
