The Great Nor'Easter, Wildwood's popular rollercoaster at Morey's Surfside Pier, is getting a $5 million dollar makeover.

The 21-year-old 50 miles per hour roller coaster is reportedly in need of repair. According to NJ.com, the coaster is lacking in the smoothness department, and something going that fast shouldn't be a bumpy ride!

Hence, why Morey's dishing out $5 million to smooth out the ride.

The project started back on Labor Day, leaving the Great Nor'Easter to look like a coaster on the set of a "Final Destination' movie (thanks NJ.com for that comparison!). But, no worries after the installation of magnetic brakes, the coaster is expected to stop a lot smoother.

Aside from the brake installation, once the project is over we should be expected a sparkly new and renovated ride.

Can't wait for the springtime!
