The circuit was sited on a natural amphitheatre and opened in February 1958 by the Hobart Sporting Car Club and has been operating continuously ever since. Baskerville's official website suggested{{fact|date=August 2014}} that it is the oldest continuously operating permanent circuit in Australia, although technically true, Mount Panorama Circuit, Bathurst is older opening in 1938. Previously, Baskerville has hosted the Winfield 25's Touring Car Challenge, Australian Sports Car Championship, Australian Formula 2 Championship, Australian Road Racing Championships (motorcycles), Australian Superbike Championships and other races.[4] Baskerville was the location for the 2006 Australian Improved Production Nationals and for the 2009 Formula Vee Nationals, with the latter won by Daniel Reynolds in a Sabre 01. Baskerville Raceway hosted the inaugural Tasmanian Historic Motorcycle Championships from 25-27 November 2011.[5] In recent years Baskerville Raceway has hosted the Baskerville Historics, the largest event at Baskerville Raceway. The event includes both cars and bikes over a three-day event, and has brought the likes of former V8 Supercars driver Glen Seton and current co-owner of V8 Supercar team Prodrive racing Australia, Rusty French. In 2012 the owning club, Hobart Sporting Car Club, launched the Baskerville Foundation, a fundraising initiative to bring the circuit to a more modern standard with the ultimate goal of a full resurface of the track. In 2015 the circuit gained a naming rights sponsor in Pepsi Max, with the circuit changing its name to Pepsi Max Baskerville Raceway The circuit now holds several events including the Tasmanian Super Series, Tasmanian Drift Series, the Baskerville Historics the Baskerville 2-Hour Motorcycle Race and several smaller events.
