Unsuccesful attempts??? Dennis, you beat the daylights
out of the rest of us in this assignment (plus 8 more!)
in the Detroit club!!!!  How much better can you do??? :)

I thought this subject is treated like fireworks:
Leave shutter open, hoping to capture the lighting
in action.  In a good storm the chances that
you will capture lighting with the shutters open for
a minute or so are quite high.  The sky should be
fairly dark because of the storm, so the open shutter
and wait method should work in principle.

The question of camera separation is even more
important here since the lighting is much further
away than fireworks.
