I'm not sure if 300V is higher in esters, but I like it better than Red Line for short-to-moderate OCIs. Motul is a bigger company with a better and longer standing reputation overall, and they actually works with manufacturers to formulate stuff to their specs. 300V is one of the definitive race oils (it's used in a lot of professional race cars right out of the can), yet it has enough detergents and stuff for a 7k-8k mile OCI in a properly running engine.
Also to be fair, I'm assuming you're interested in Red Line's street oils, which could definitely run longer OCIs than Motul 300V. As I mentioned above, I am also assuming you're looking for a product to run for short-to-moderate OCIs for cleaning purposes. But if you are interested in longer OCIs, Motul's street oils could also run much longer than 300V, and unlike Red Line they have the OEM approvals to prove it.
In general, I've never seen or heard a reason to use a Red Line product over an equivalent Motul product except in the US, where Red Line costs half as much per quart -- which, to be fair, is a LOT.

Yes, i am looking for Red Line because of the cleaning effect and yes, i have used Motul excess 8400 and it was excellent probably better than Mobil1 but maybe not everybody will agree...
