How it's made

Ignition
a soft gas "fwump" at the start, brown noise low-passed to ~220 Hz with a 15 ms attack and a ~140 ms decay, plus a short bright flash of pink noise as the flames catch.
Whoosh
the ball rushing past, pink noise through a band-pass whose centre climbs from ~300 Hz to a few kHz as it nears and falls away after the peak (Doppler-like brightness), travelling across the stereo field.
Roar
burning gas, brown noise below ~450 Hz, amplitude-modulated by a fast drift (turbulent flutter) and swelling with the whoosh, then dying with the flight.
Crackling trail
sparks and burning fibres shed behind the ball: sparse high-passed unipolar impulses plus Poisson wood-resonance crackles, dense right after the cast and thinning out as the fire flies away.
Envelope
sharp onset (about 15 ms), the energy peaks at ~35 % of the length, a long fading tail.
Variation
peak time, crackle tuning, level and pan come from `rng`; presets change size, speed and heat.
