Hide AdWest Yorkshire Police have now released CCTV footage of the pursuit of the quad by Glover during a summer of 'rising tensions' and gang violence on the estate.
An incident in which a car parked nearby was damaged was the catalyst for the violent chase.
Glover, who was also given a three-year driving ban, had accepted causing death by dangerous driving but denied murder.
He drove at 65mph before striking the quad, whose passengers he claimed were carrying weapons.

Hide AdDetective Chief Inspector Tony Nicholson of West Yorkshire Police said: “There are no winners in this case. An 18-year-old man lost his life with devastating consequences for his family and friends and a 24-year-old man will be spending a minimum of 18 years in prison.
“I hope this serves as a stark warning to other young men in the Holmewood area who might be engaging in petty damage, assaults, dangerous driving or anti-social behaviour that sometimes it can have serious and deadly consequences.”
