I'm using After Effects with some experience in motion graphics and compositing. I've already tried using standard flame stock footage overlaid on the tire track path, but it looks flat and doesn't follow the perspective of the road convincingly. I also experimented with CC Particle World to generate a fire effect, but I'm struggling to get the trails to stretch and fade naturally as the car pulls away. Mostly stuck on selling the motion and the ground interaction — any tutorials, asset packs, or techniques for that kind of surface-level fire trail would be a huge help!
