Cars and Lightning

Hi Guys

It is my intention to travel back to the top end during the wet season, and do some serious storm chasing.
I have been their before, however I was parked up for a considerable time and enjoyed all the light shows, with out actually driving anywhere.
This time i intend to travel throughout the territory during the storm months and capture lightning at its best.
I will probably be out in some remote areas with my vehicle and was wondering how much if any damage a direct/near strike could cause to the cars computer and electrical system.
Would it be wise to disconnect the battery/isolate the power to all the cars electrical system before the storm approaches
I have seen some serious strikes up there

Many Thanks.

Leon
