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.

In any event if you get a direct hit I suspect you'll need a set of new tyres.
