Aren't all IRL cars using Honda engines? I believe Toyota and Chevy pulled out a couple years ago.

Yeah, all IRL cars are powered by Honda.

Actually you're right. Honda started supplying all motors for IRL teams so I guess the thread title is a little misleading. Still the race was pretty good except for the rain. The highest woman finisher was Patrick in 8th and I'm all about Honda's development in the IRL.
