'Boy-racers' in the Slieve Blooms are being warned they'll face the 'full rigors of the law' in a new Garda operation.
There'll be an increased Garda presence in the Glendine area of the mountain, which stems from Kinnitty and Camross.
The new operation follows a series of reports of racing in the area, from local councillors and TDs.
Superintendent at Portlaoise Garda Station, Eamon Curley, has issued this warning to those partaking in the illegal activity:
