The BMW rider was the quickest man on track in the morning warm-up, before completing his perfect weekend with a dominating win in this afternoon’s final 16-lap race.
Allerton, who took maximum points from the round, topped every Superbike session held over the weekend.
“I am really happy with today’s race it couldn’t have gone much better other than getting the holeshot,” Allerton said. “I was behind Robbie off the start but once I got past him I laid down some good laps and got away early.
“This is what we have all been working for. Hopefully we can keep it together and keep building on today’s result,” he added.
Allerton’s only challenge came from Volvo Group Suzuki’s Robbie Bugden, who took the holeshot before relinquishing the race lead to Allerton mid lap.
“I got a bit of an average start in Race 2 and both Robbie and Glenn got away,” Maxwell explained. “Then it took me a few laps to set up a pass on Robbie.
“Suzuki provided me with an awesome bike we just didn’t quite have it. We will go back to the drawing board and see if we can get the GSX R onto the top step at the next round.”
Finishing third in today’s race, Bugden is third in the championship standings and acknowledged his team had some work to do in bridging the gap to rival Allerton.
“I got a good start but lacked a little bit of grip early. Glenn is riding really well and he got that little bit of a gap,” Bugden stated. “For Team Suzuki to finish second and third is still a really good result but we came here to win.
“We have a very dedicated team here at Suzuki so we wont’ rest until we bridge that gap to Glenn,” Bugden said.
CM Racing’s Chas Hern endured another horror day, pulling off on the warm-up lap due to an engine failure.
The teams will now prepare for the next event on the QBE Australian Superbike Championship which will be held at Queensland Raceway on June 14-16.
