how are we supposed to know if you should worry about it?
take a look under the car, you could've dented your downpipe, maybe dented the underbody, bent an LCA, broke a fuel or brake line, kinked the fuel tank, there's so many things that could be affected by you running over a large rock.

Just take a look under your car. I consistantly rub my resonator on speedbumps, but it usually doesn't mess it up.
Hearing a huge bang is probably just your struts whacking your bump stops, or if you removed those, the bang would be your strut bottoming out entirely.
Make sure everything feels normal, no shaking or anything like turning to the right when you let go of the wheel. Most you probably did was mess up the alignment, and I really doubt that.

dude i got a lot of those kinds of rock piles where i live thats why i study all the roads i go to so that next time i dont hit them even though my car is stock height it could still hit my bumper or any of my pipes.

Jesus christ... you hit a rock, your car made a banging noise. You're asking us if it's anything to worry about...?
Is it just me, or is this common sense? Maybe take a look underneath? If you cant see anything, have a garage look at it.
