The twin brothers finished the series one-two in the Pro-open class in a family success.
Team Motul Pirelli Suzuki's Matt Moss took out the series win in the Pro open class after heading into the final round five points behind leader Josh Hill.
Moss led from start to finish in the final on Saturday night to take out the final round race as well as the series.
He beat home twin brother Jake, with second place good enough to secure runner-up in the series.
"It feels really good," said Matt Moss, who also won the Australian motocross title this year.
"To be honest, it was a little bit unexpected but I knew I wanted to get the job done."
Jake Moss was thrilled to be part of the brotherly quinella.
"It is awesome for Matt and I to be one and two in the championship and it is an incredible feat for a privateer to finish runner-up," he said.
Monster Energy Kawasaki rider Jay Marmont finished third in the Toowoomba final, with home-town rider Matt Haworth eighth and Geham's Jacob Wright 10th.
Luke Styke managed to claim the Pro Lites series win as he took out the Toowoomba final to edge out defending champion Gavin Faith for the series.
