Ahh, the elusive "Meat and Tires" edition. That thing will smoke ANYTHING.

Weber was sure thinking outside the box with a BBQ you could not only cook on, but also drag race with while on the way to the office. Mostly high-profile celebrities and athletes bought them but sadly the majority of them ended up totalled or wrapped around lamp poles.

Original Specifications:

1981 Supercharged 22.5" (This model also seems to have the optional Nitrous Injection)
363 Sq in. Chromed out cooking surface with electronic butterfly valve style hinged grate
Tri-port hot-dog expulsion system
Dual use fuel / condiment tank with internal baffles
Full SS Hardware upgrade.
Reinforced triangle to handle all the extra torque
Extra-wide 2.5" slicks

It's a beast.

You've found yourself a real gem Stu!... I'd consider contacting Weber about it ASAP.

 ;) ;D ;)

Edit: Tough crowd! Figured my late night/early morning delirious rambling would at least amuse some with my stupidity... Guess not  :)

Yeah, I like having the nitrous option if you just want a fast sear.

Here's a slightly clearer version......



Careful not to rev it up too, too much...........

"If you want it fancy there is BBQ spray paint at home depot for that. "
    Covered, damper-controlled cooking.....IF YOU PLEASE !!!
           "But the ever versatile kettle reigned supreme"
