In rallying, Pacenotes are a way of describing in detail the rally route that a driver will go through. The notes usually include the features of the road that affect how it is driven fast, and also the types of corners. The features include the distance between each turn, camber (angle) of each corner, hills, jumps, and other instructions to the driver.  For the notes to be useful to the driver, they are written with abbreviations and read out loud by a navigator, also called a co-driver. There is no standard for the pacenotes, but in practice, most of them are similar. Other variations include the language the driver and co-driver prefer to speak, if the distances are in meters or yards, and others. The pacenotes for a World Rally Championship stage may be many pages long, and the whole notebook for the whole rally may be various thick volumes.

Quiapo () is a district of the city of Manila, in the National Capital Region of the Philippines. Known as the “Old Downtown of Manila", the district’s most famous landmark is Quiapo Church, shrine of the sacred Black Nazarene image, processioned annually every January in the historic district, attracting tens of thousands of devotees.  Geographically located at the very center of the City of Manila, Quiapo is bounded by the "Pasig River" and the "Estero de San Miguel" to the south, San Miguel district to the east, the districts of Sampaloc and Santa Cruz; with "Recto Avenue" to the north, and "Rizal Avenue" to the west. Etymology. Quiapo's name is derived from the abundance of water cabbage ("Pistia stratiotes"), called "kiyapo" in Tagalog (spelled "quiapo" in "Philippine Spanish") in the nearby Pasig River. The town of Cuyapo in Nueva Ecija province is also named after the same plant. History. Pre-1800 maps of Manila show that Quiapo, historically a poor fishing village, was originally a cluster of islands with marshlands and shallow waters. In 1578, Franciscans arrived and established their main missionary headquarters in the nearby Santa Ana de Sapa, taking Quiapo as part of its "visita" (chapel-of-ease) and founded Quiapo Church, dedicated to its patron Saint John the Baptist. Franciscan prelate Pedro Bautista petitioned to make Quiapo a separate town, and the petition was granted by the Governor-General Santiago de Vera on August 29, 1586. In 1622, Augustinians arrived and founded a chapel in honor of St. Sebastian at the present-day site of the San Sebastian Basilica. By 1850, then a small agricultural village, population of Quiapo grew as a result of a developing economy upon termination of the "Manila Galleon Trade" monopoly and the subsequent opening of the Philippines to world trade in 1830. Newly affluent "mestizo" families began settling in Quiapo afterwards, as well as rich mercantile Europeans and Spanish military officials.
