It was easy to see, that there has used less money to arrange the whole HIN in this year, than last year. Unfortunately it was so easy to see. Only one hall in use and all the other cars outside. Two earlier years all cars were inside and also everything looked very nice. Anyway HIN is always HIN and feeling is good and there are lot of pimped cars.
