Ditto. The Mini wakes up easily from USB devices. Keyboards, mice, anything that might signal activity when the system is asleep. The symptoms you describe are consistent with accidental wakeup.

Take your USB hub off the Mini and try the car with that configuration. Make sure if you still have a mouse or keyboard hooked to the Mini that you don't touch or move them. See if the problem persists. If it does, do as Dave suggests.

Jirka has a good solution - just put tape over the power lead on the hub to prevent it from pulling power from the Mini.
