A court hears that Lee Taylor said 'you don't want to mess with me' before getting into his BMW and ploughing into young fans.
Judge Daniel Williams said Taylor's attempts to set ground rules for the fight"between two children" had resulted in"incredulity and derision" from the boys, who insulted him and called him"fatty".
"Your fragile pride could not take the insults. You were angry and decided to exact revenge on those who dared to dent your fragile ego. The court heard Taylor said"you don't want to mess with me" and then got into his grey BMW, revved the engine, and then accelerated into the group of boys, injuring 11 of them.A 17-year-old boy jumped on top of the car and punched Taylor's windscreen in an attempt to get him to stop.Judge Williams said it was"just good fortune" that none of the victims were seriously injured or killed.
He said he was unaware of the collisions and could not hear the boys' screams because his car stereo was too loud.
