How do you get up the bridge with casters on each end?

Sounds like they have some type of suspension system with a considerable amount of travel (well, compared to last year, it would have been fairly normal in 2010), or they've overlooked something.

We are using 10" pneumatic wheels. Six wheel drive and it turns great, goes over the bump too. Here is a video.

How's driving on carpet?

The wheels work really well on carpet and the bot spins like a top. We might need to power the front wheels, but we are getting over the bump with a moderate run up. It's like watching a monster truck.

We have lowered the pressure on the front and rear wheels, which gives more of a cushion for hitting the bump, and gives higher traction for pushing on to the ramp at an angle.
