I know of at least 3 teams that have about that much ground clearance.... Us, 254, and 968.

To be able to go over the bumps we had to countersink all of the holes to mount our electronics and place all the screws from the bottom up. The bottom of the robot was literally SMOOTH. And we never got stuck!
And I know that all the holes are countersunk because I was the one who was in charge of drilling all of them....
