Given the that you will eventually stop using ns1 and ns2 You should probably set up mynewns1 as the master with mynewns2 as a slave of mynewns1.

If your ISP has set a longer TTL on your NS records then you would need to first ask for a shorter TTL and wait until the time has passed. Example: if TTL is set to one week, ask for change to shorter period and then wait for 1.5(or more) times the old TTL to pass before you begin your process.
