"Eat (someone's) dust" = Ăn bụi/hít bụi của ai -> Bị bỏ xa đằng sau ai, bị thua cuộc trong một cuộc thi đấu hay công việc mang tính cạnh tranh cao.

Ví dụ
Heading out for a second run Norris added his name to the list of those getting it wrong, going off (rung chuông) at the Maggotts-Becketts section, as the wind continued to affect the drivers. Pierre Gasly was the next to eat dust.

While Jackie Chan isn’t making the bad guys eat dust thanks to (nhờ vào việc) his slick (nhanh) Kung Fu moves, he is out and about buying uber luxurious yachts. Just recently, the 65-year-old martial artist (võ sĩ) and actor had a 150-ft superyacht built for him.

Sorry, but even a single Confederate (Liên minh miền Nam) flag on the back of a pickup is enough to create the impression that the entire off-roading (địa hình gập ghềnh) community is a bunch of racist good ol’ boys who come over from the Valley (thung lũng) to drink and raise hell — leaving the locals to eat their dust and clean up their mess.
