Uhmm.. Racials aren't really that important at higher levels. I mean sure, they help a tad bit, but not enough to be game changing. There are trinkets that give better bonuses to you than racials.
That being said, I think you should roll whatever race you think looks the coolest. (Obviously Trolls or Tauren ;))
As for your pets... You will want atleast three active pets on you. :D
1. Tenacity (The tank and soloing pet): Go bear or turtle, they make great tanks for you to solo.
2. Ferocity (The DPS and group pet): You can't go wrong with a cat, they got some nice stats.
3. Cunning (The PvP and 5 man dungeons pet): Tame a spider. They have nice abilities such as web to stop enemies.

Beetles also make a good tank pet if you're mm or sv. :)
Pick the race you think you can staring at for 85+ levels. Tenacity pets are more for soloing, the cunning and fero pets are nice for 5 mans.
The cats are my favorite. I really like being a Beast Master hunter because you get the exotic spirit beasts--so awesome because they heal you!

Cunning is more for 5 mans and PvP. Ferocity is more for 5 mans and raids, basically group PvE.
The key is that, in groups, always use the pet that gives the beat raid buff. Usually, that is a wolf, which gives 5% crit. If you have more that one hunter in your group, you may want to use the wolf/cat combination. Cats give you agi and str buff.
When solo, use whatever you prefer. Use tenacity if you need your pet to tank. For example, when you are trying to kill 5 or 6 creatures at once using multishot. If you pick SV, you may use a dragonhawk (cunning) for that 5% magical damage increase.
If your tank dies in the middle of a fight, quickly dismiss your pet and call your tank pet, misdirect your aggro to him and tell the healer to heal your pet until tank is resurrected, if possible.
There are many other situations you need to learn to adapt as a hunter, but I'm sure you will learn as you go. The key is that you want to make sure your pet provides your raid buffs, rather than yourself. If your group is mostly intelligent casters, you want to use wolf instead of cat, and vice versa.
Remember, raid first, individual bonus second
