Question
Mater and McQueen are talking about their wildest hopes and dreams. Mater really wants to fly in a helicopter but knows that his low paying job at the impound lot will probably never let him accomplish his goal. McQueen, a major player in high stakes auto racing, then says, "Mater, if you will help me pave a road, I will buy you a helicopter ride." Assuming this is not an offer in jest, does the pair have a contract? If yes, please explain how the contract will be fulfilled. If no, please explain what the parties would have to do further to have a valid contract.
Explanation / Answer
This is not a contract because it can't be enforced in court of law as there is no proof of conversation. They would have to write and sign agreement to make it proper contract
