Born in Adelaide, Summers first had success as a junior, winning the Australian Under-16 Solo Championship in 2004.[4]
He began his British speedway career in 2007, riding for Buxton Hitmen in the Conference League and Edinburgh Monarchs in the Premier League.[4] In his second season, he won the Premier League and the Premier Trophy with the Monarchs, also riding for Redcar Bears' Conference League team.[4][5]
In 2009, he stayed with the Monarchs, and the following year rode for Birmingham Brummies in the Premier League and for Coventry Bees in their title-winning Elite League season.[6][7] He was part of the Birmingham four who won the Premier League Four-Team Championship, on 15 August 2010, at the East of England Arena.[8]
In 2011, he began a four-year stay with Redcar Bears in the Premier League and in 2012 and 2013 returned to the Coventry Bees Elite League team. In 2015 he left the Bears and signed for Glasgow Tigers where he captained the team, doubling up in the Elite League with Swindon Robins and ending the season with a 6.82 Elite League CMA. He started the 2016 season with Tigers but with no Elite League place, but was signed by Leicester Lions in April to replace Grzegorz Walasek.[9]
He rode for Berwick Bandits and Peterborough Panthers during 2019 and remained with Berwick for the 2021 season.[10] In 2022, he rode for the Ipswich Witches in the SGB Premiership 2022 and also joined the Oxford Cheetahs for the SGB Championship 2022.
