Question:

Answers:
from the typical western movies back in "the day". the cowboy (hero)'s most famous moment is when the villain is about to kill the heroine and then suddenly in a cloud of dust someone comes forward. after the dust settles, you see the hero, guns pointing, ready to save the day.
Maybe from the dirt track circuit, after the dust settles you can see the winner.
