The LJM Racing star took out round 12 of the Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series at Bunbury Speedway on Saturday night.
He was in control for the 25-lap feature race, crossing ahead of Jason Kendrick and his older brother Jamie Maiolo.
At the last Bunbury meeting, Brad Maiolo was baulked by a slower car in lapped traffic before crashing out.
In round 11 at Perth Motorplex, he was fighting for second spot when contact between his vehicle and Jamie Maiolo’s put them both out of contention.
Brad Maiolo hit the lead with only a couple of laps in the books, and was never challenged.
Kendrick alternated between third and fourth until mid-race distance, going on to secure second on lap 17.
Jamie Maiolo clinched third, ahead of Tom Payet in fourth, Kaiden Manders (fifth), Kye Scroop (sixth), and American Harli White (seventh).
Darren Mewett and Todd Davis, who both started on the front row, were non-finishers.
Kendrick claimed another Victory 1 Performance Quick Time award with a 13.537 second lap, bettering that of Brad Maiolo (13.693) and Manders (13.701).
Kendrick then won the first heat race of the night from Brad Maiolo and Manders.
Payet then claimed the second heat from Jamie Maiolo and White.
Round 13 will be held at the Perth Motorplex on Saturday, February 9.
