The cars in the Indy 500 must meet specific requirements, which change periodically. Currently, the chassis must be manufactured by Dallara, while Honda and Chevrolet manufacture the engines. The requirements specify things like RPM (maximum of 12000), fuel (ethanol), and transmission (sequential, with six gears). For more information, the Wikipedia article "IndyCar Series" contains a complete list of specifications.
