George Balhan

George Balhan is a monster truck driver out of Chicago, Illinois best known for driving Mohawk Warrior and An Escalade. Balhan first started off as a quad-wars racer before driving the Spider-Man truck in 2003, and also debuting the TMNT truck in Montreal that year and even won racing. For 2004 Balhan was put behind the wheel of the second Blue Thunder then in 2005 he got his own ride simply titled An Escalade. Balhan adopted his trademark mohawk during this time and competed in his first Monster Jam World Finals. He would continue to drive An Escalade until 2010 when Mohawk Warrior, a truck fittingly themed after him, debuted which he continues to drive to this day. Balhan is known for both taking the steering wheel out of the roof hatch during donuts, and literally giving the shirt off his back to his fans, which are aptly called the Mohawk Nation.
