Can I add one question, will our engine blow if we speed at 240kph for one hour?
I'm guessing there are several things we need to be concerned about if we are travelling at 240kph for such a long time.... One such thing is.... staying alive?

Maybe if we do it if the windows down we may look like a bloodhound at the end of the hour.

in the first place, can your RX8 hit 240km/hr.

PI JDM spec 4AT & 6MT - Speed cut 187km.
MM Euro specs 6MT - Top Speed 234km.

Tires has a speed rating, eg. H or Z etc.,
ask yr tire shop for a detailed explaination.

Anyway at 230km, i should think the 8 is quite unstable.
