The South African won the T44 100m race in 11.04 seconds, before clocking 47.28 seconds in the T42/44 400m event.
Pistorius, known as the "Blade Runner," hopes to qualify for the able-bodied world championships in Daegu, South Korea, later this year. He also hopes to compete for South Africa in next year's London Olympics.
