Question about track legality...

I've been to the Major Taylor Velodrome and I noticed that not all the track bikes started out life as a track bike but they all did have track "dropouts", some probably added later. At least a couple of bikes had road forks with a hole for a brake caliper but of course no brake.

What exactly makes a bike legal for the track and are some track rules different than others? Is a high BB required?
