The lens is more important than the camera it's mounted to. For full size motorsport the hardest part is getting close enough. RC is more difficult, especially if you're going to be shooting indoors you'll want an f/2.8 zoom as a minimum.

You can get cheap wireless triggers on ebay (look for yongnuo
) I wouldn't use cls for portrait work.
Your biggest issue with portraits is space, you need a lot for white BG stuff. Ideally you want black walls too, light bouncing around off white walls can really do your tree in.
The D60 is fine for all of this, it has better highISO performance than the D200 and the battery lasts longer.
The only reason not to get a D60 is if you are already invested in non af-s lenses (which I'm guessing you aren't) or you plan on shooting A LOT and really need the front command dial and extra function buttons.
