I have also tried a high speed SD card thinking that it would help but it didn't. The best way to get photos every 2-5 seconds is to use a JPEG setting and turn off active d-lighting. Seems to make the photos process much faster.

The reason why your camera is lagging when writing the RAW files is because there's so much more data it has to write than compared to JPEG files. Stick to the JPEG format.

RAW is a little overkill for timelaps :)

Looks like you did a shot every 10-15 seconds? To get really smooth time lapse, you need a intervalometer either built the camera or by using camera software. The really smooth time lapse that you see on some videos is often a product of taking a photo every 1-2 seconds for a few hours. This is hard to do with the D60 because of it's slow processing time for the photos. I can only get 3 photos in succession using the NEF RAW setting. Then I have to wait a moment to let them process.

(lets see if youtube will take my comment this time)
Yeah, those are pretty much the basics..
By default, Active D-lighting is turned off when my software starts up on my pc, so I don't even worry about that. I rarely do anything that's 1-2 hours. I find my most dramatic vids are between 4-12 hours (thank goodness for external power supplies and time lapse software).
