Single Engine Procedures / Failure Training

Just a quick question for the group. Has anyone conducted any simulated training flights/procedures regarding loss of an engine at takeoff and continue the takeoff assuming the simulated failure happens at a time just after liftoff/rotation and the performance is such continued flight is possible.

I assume the group's view piont / procedures would not to raise the gear because of the increased drag issue with the doors for aircraft that do not have the modification....Also, is there a more critical engine as it relates to CG impact if you were to lose power as I have read from others there is a noticeable handling characteristic as it relates to pitch / CG.

Thanks in advance, T.
